PRESET DEFINITION MODULE

28 - NONTRANSPOSE

Nontranspose lets a Voice play throughout its assigned keyboard range but at its original

pitch only -- there will be no transposition.

Application: To determine the original note at which a Voice was recorded. Or, if you’re playing

drum parts on the keyboard, you might want to assign the bass drum to the entire left-most

octave of the keyboard so that it makes an easy target compared to hitting one key. In this case,

put the bass drum into Nontranspose mode so that no matter where you hit, the sound is

consistent. Or, if you have an environmental ocean sound layered beyond a melodic line, but

don’t want the ocean to transpose as you play the melody, Nontranspose the ocean sound.

One more application...assign a non-transposed sound and play several keys at almost the

same time; you’ll hear some pretty neat phasing/flanging effects.

1. With the module active, key in 28. The display says:

NonTransp. Mode

Play a Key

...and the ENTER light will be lit. Play a key from the Voice you want nontransposed.

When the display shows the desired Voice, press ENTER.

2. The display now says:

(Selected Voice)

Nontransp: NO

...which shows that the default mode is NO. To put the Voice in Nontranspose mode,

press YES. To cancel an existing Nontranspose assignment, press NO. After choosing,

exit to another function as described in GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS 3.
