Transpose Presets?

[tombikadam]

I have 1 style, I changed the key to -2 for example, and want to save it so I don't want to use the transpose buttons again when I change the style and want to choose it again. Can I save this transpose setting to the style so every style can have its own transpose value, for example, +1 +4 -3 .....

No, you can not save this transpose setting to the style.

If you change the key means to transpose the whole instrument - that is Master Transpose (Pa1000 manual p852). To change Master Transpose remains temporarily - only saving a Songbook entry also save Master Transpose.

In Global Tuning you can decide when Master Transpose should be applied.

PS: In Style Record each track (Bass, Acc1-5) has its own Key/Chord parameters. It is not to believe you want to change the default key "C" of that tracks of a certain Style, because that at same time with that style would require to use edited Keyboard sound-programs that are changed to that key.
That is because Master Transpose mode is not applied separately to Style and Keyboard tracks but only together.

I posted this some time ago.

As a test make the song “Bad Moon Rising”.

1 Select style ROLLING ROCK. Adjust volumes of upper 1,2,3 and lower.

2 Hold down SONGBOOK button for 2 seconds. A box appears. Make sure “New Song” button is lit. Type “Bad moon rising”, in place of Rolling Rock. Press OK. Bad Moon Rising will be added to Songbook. The trick is to bring it back later and edit. (Release, cut off, panning etc)

Try FOO ROCK with “Arms of Mary”. Fab.

If this is not what you meant then someone else will come to your aid for sure.

To add to that:

I have been doing this for years with factory styles and those from the midi to style converter. Keep bringing them back, edit and save the changes (not as “new song”, the other button). Note: you can just keep the name of the style if you wish. Change whatever you want and re-save.

Set Lists are a good idea I think to keep things organised.

I suspect that you know this and it may not be what you are looking for but it`s all that I can think of. The previous poster answered very well as he always does.

Good luck

In PA900, all of these are possible. I bought a PA1000 and see that all these functions are gone. Only Songbook can save the transpose!!!
It is shame that they took this functionality away in PA1000.
