Changing the key to make performance easier
In addition to lowering the tempo and reducing the speed with which the stream lights appear, you can
change the song’s performance key to one that requires you to play less black keys, which will make it
easier to play.
1.The key of “Red River Valley” is B major, which has five sharps, as you can see from looking
at the notes on the accompaniment score. Raising this key half a tone transposes it to
C major, which has no sharps, allowing you to play everything on the white keys. To
do this, just move the transpose slider at left to “+1.”
All of the sharps disappear from the score, making it neat and easy to read. If you try playing the
song back, the audio playback will be a half-tone higher than before. You can use this function to
transpose songs to a key that will allow you to practice and learn to play songs quickly.
2.However, there are some situations where changing the key of a song may
cause problems, such as when you are playing with a vocalist.
In such cases, you can change the key of the CSP itself without using the
song transpose function.
2-1. First tap the menu at top left, then tap
Utility
2-2. Tap the “Transpose” menu at the top, and set
the Keyboard/Style section to “-1.” Normally,
when this is set to 0, the C key is orange, but
this will change to “-1” and the C key will now
be set to B.
