Press the [UTILITY] button to enter the Utility mode, press the [F1] button, then press the [SF1] button to call up the Play display as shown in the manual page 55.

2 Move the cursor to Transpose, then set the value. Set the value to "+1" to transpose the pitch up by a semitone, or set it to "-1" to transpose it down by a semitone. To transpose it up or down by a whole tone, set this to "2"; to transpose by an octave, set it to "12." NOTE To transpose by octaves, use the Octave parameter (above Transpose).

3 Press the [STORE] button to store the Utility setting
