Transpose – buttons simultaneously will restore the current Program or Setup to having no
transposition. If the transposition value is greater than zero, the Transpose + button’s LED
will be lit. If the transposition value is less than zero, the Transpose – button’s LED will be
lit.
If the Octave button is active, pressing the Transpose + or Transpose – buttons will
transpose the current Program or Setup in octaves (+/– 12 semitones). The Octave button’s
LED is lit when the button is active and remains lit until you press the button again to
disable it.
The maximum transposition value is +/–36. If the Octave button is active and the current
transposition value is greater than +24, pressing the Transpose + button will not increase
the value as it would be out of range. If the Octave button is active and the current
transposition value is less than –24, pressing the Transpose – button will not decrease the
value as it would be out of range. The Transpose + and Transpose – button LEDs are lit
if they have a transposition value other than zero.
Navigation
The navigation section of the SP5’s front panel includes the alphanumeric display, Value
buttons, Chan / Param buttons, and the Alpha Wheel. The display contrast knob is also
located in this section above the Alpha Wheel.
The Display
The display shows two lines of text up to twenty characters in length. In Program and Setup
Mode, the top line of the display shows the current Mode, MIDI transposition, and MIDI
Channel (Program Mode only) and the bottom line shows the current Program or Setup ID
number and name. In the other Modes—Edit Setup, Global, and System—the top line of
the display shows the current Mode, Zone number (Edit Setup Mode only) and the current
parameter number as well as the total the number of available parameters. The bottom line
of the display shows the current parameter and value.
