The TRANSPOSE Key

This feature allows you to transpose a track up or down by a specified

amount in real time. Transposition is only a temporary change—the

sequence data are not altered unless SOFT KEY 1, <Transpose

Permanent>, is pressed. Also, the MPC60 does not transpose Drum

tracks—only MIDI tracks can be transposed. (Though if you do want to

transpose a Drum track, temporarily changing its type to MIDI on the

Play/Record screen will allow you to transpose it. Make sure to change it

back to DRUM when you’re done.) Pressing TRANSPOSE causes the

following screen to appear:

============== Transpose ==============A

Track: 0-(all tracks) Amount: 0

(Play synth key to set amount)

========== Transpose Permanent =========

Ticks:001.01.00-003.01.00

========================================

The following is a description of each of the screen fields and soft keys:

• The Track field:

The field specifies the track that will be transposed. Enter a 0 here if you

want all tracks (except Drum tracks) to be transposed simultaneously. If

you enter a 0 here, then when you re-enter the screen, the 0 will still be

selected. However, if you enter any real track number, then the next time

you enter this screen the active track will be entered automatically.

• The Amount field:

This field sets the amount and direction of transposition in semitones.

For example, to transpose up a fifth, enter a 7. To transpose down a

fourth, turn the data entry knob to the left until -5 appears. A much faster

way to set this field is simply to press a key on the MIDI keyboard—the

amount will be automatically set by the location of the key in relation to

Middle C. For example, pressing a key one octave below Middle C would

set the Amount field to -12. If the Amount field is set to any value other

than 0, the transpose light will go on, indicating that the transpose

function is active. It will turn off when this field is returned to 0, or if

<Transpose permanent> is pressed.

• The Ticks fields:

These two bar.beat.tick fields specify the region to be permanently

transposed when the <Transpose permanent> soft key is pressed. The

first field (before the dash) sets the start of the region and the second

field sets a location one tick after the last tick of the region to be

transposed.

• The <Transpose permanent> soft key:
