CLP 300 Transposing
by: Alfred

Dear "Anonymous": I normally gloss over postings with no (First) name, but will give you the benefit of the doubt that your oversight was unintentional. Here are general steps to follow for Transposing:
1) Start with the FUNCTION feature
2) Use the CATEGORY to select "TRANSPOSE"
3) Set the Transpose value (between -100 and + 100 for small pitch changes) & (between -12 and + 12 for large pitch changes).

Keys represented by the 0-12 and 0+12 settings are explained as follows:

When the transpose setting is at 0 then playing middle C gives a middle C. So whatever key is used to play the music will be "true" and accurately tuned.

Going up one, for example (+1), and playing middle C will sound a C#.

Lowering the transpose setting one (-1) will sound a B if the middle C is played.

This is especially helpful if singing in the original key is difficult for a vocalist, or if playing along with any "differently tuned" instrument.

Hope the above is of help. Could you please post a follow-up Forum message if it is. We all want to learn from your experience. Thank you
