AK: KBD Transp? What does it do?

Have anyone figured out what the KBD Transpose mode do (Function + Hold)?

The only apparent thing it does on my AK is making the led above the button light up semibright and flashing. I am pretty sure it is supposed to do more than that. Anyone figured it out?


Anyone?

Like you, waiting on Reference Manual. This and others regarding mapping, LED reference above keys, and advanced joystick and external midi controller functionality/assignment–if anything, expected these to be in the new A4 Manual 1.1 but waiting still the same.

When enabled, the keyboard will play according to the transpose and key scale selected on your track. So if your track is transposed +3 and your track has scale set to C MAJOR, the keyboard will also play transposed +3 and all notes are forced to C MAJOR scale.

DAMN!! That’s fucking awesome. I know some scales, but nothing like a hardlocked backup for live situations. Now I truly hope to see some more detailed and diverse scales added to the analog OS.

I guess it is not possible to transpose the 4 synth tracks (or sounds) separately? Afaik you can only transpose the tracks globally? as in you either transpose a track or not (by enabling the track to be transposable). And then all transposable tracks are transposed the same.

The thing i am struggling with is to use the MultiMap functionality efficiently for live use (playing the keyboard), with just a simple keyboard split splitting the keyboard to play track 1 & 2. When i switch kit (or pattern) i want to be able to have the 2 ranges transposed differently. To be able to access the 2 sounds and the desired pitches i need from the 3 octave keyboard.

Lets say on
Kit1 i want to transpose track 1 down 2 octaves and track 2 down 1 octave.
Kit2 i want to transpose track 1 down 1 octave and track 2 down 1 octave.
Kit3 i want to transpose track 1 down 1 octave and track 2 up 1 octave.
etc etc…

Is this possible somehow? Now (afaik) i either have to manually edit the multimap or switch to another multimap setup (switch to one other of the 4 globals) which isnt very practical in a live situation.
