The current temperament is "Kirnberger III", the selected cent relation tone is "a" (i.e. cent relation
function is not active):
a bb b c
c#
d d# e f f# g g#
0 +6.5 -1.5
+10.5
+0.5
+3.5
+4.5 -
3.5
+8.5
+0.5 +7.0 +2.5
By using cent relation tone = "c" all cent values will be lowered by 10.5 cent.
a bb b c

d d# e f f# g g#
-10.5 -4.0 -12.0 0 -10.0 -7.0 -6.0 -14.0 -2.0 -10.0 -3.5 -8.0
The description of how to select the cent relation tone is in chapter 3.4.3.
3.4.2 THE TRANSPOSER
With the transposer you may transpose the selected temperament into any key. For example, if
you need to transpose from key "a" to key "c", all cent deviation values of the temperament table
have to be rotated three semi-tones to the right.
Example: transposition "a" to "c" (cent relation tone = "a"),
temperament "Kirnberger III"

a bb b c
c#
d d# e f f# g g#
0 +6.5 -1.5 +10.5 +0.5 +3.5 +4.5 -3.5 +8.5 +0.5 +7.0 +2.5
first, the table will be rotated by 3 semi-tone steps to the right
a bb b c
c#
d d# e f f# g g#
0.5 +7.0 +2.5 0 +6.5 -1.5 +10.5 +0.5 +3.5 +4.5 -3.5 +8.5
The cent relation function then sets the cent relation tone (in this example tone "a") to 0, lowering
every cent value by 0.5 cent.
a bb b c
c#
d d# e f f# g g#
0 +6.5 +2.0 -0.5 +6.0 -2.0 +10.0 0 +3.0 +4.0 -4.0 +8.0
The instruction of how to use the transposer is found in chapter 3.4.3.
