Please guys badly need yourhelp,have korgx50 problem is the tuning suddenly transpose up and down,and almost 50% of the program effects are not working properly maybe the IC is not functioning thinkso

To transpose a sound on the Roland E-16 keyboard, you can use the Transpose function. Here's how to do it:

1. Press the FUNCTION button and then press the TRANSPOSE button.
2. Use the + or - buttons to select the number of semitones you want to transpose the sound. The range is -12 to +12 semitones.
3. Press the EXIT button to exit the Transpose function.

Once you have transposed the sound, it will be played back at the new pitch. Keep in mind that transposing a sound may affect the overall tone and timbre of the instrument, so you may need to make additional adjustments to achieve the desired sound.

Hi

It maybe that you have set a transpose option.

return the keyboard to factory setting by holding down the highest white key as you turn it on. Once it has started up release the key. Try the tuning and report back.

Good luck

Whether it happens to all of the key?
If yes, transpose setting may have changed. Change the setting to normal (0).
If the normal transpose, but tuning is still not standardized, check Pitch Setting.
To Restore Standard Pitch setting:
Hold down the A-1, B-1, C0 and C # 0 keys simultaneously and press any key between C3 and B3.

If the above procedure is still no effect, try resetting the factory settings / Initialize overall: :
This is the steps:
Initializing the Settings
When you initialize the settings, all backup data stored to this instrument will be initialized and reset to the factory default settings.
Turn off the power to the instrument. Then, simultaneously hold down the C7 key (right-most key on the keyboard) and turn the power on again.

NOTICE
Do not turn off the power to this instrument while it is initializing the data in its internal memory (that is, while the button indicators are flashing).

Notes:
If this instrument somehow becomes disabled or malfunctions, turn off the power to the instrument, then perform the initialization procedure.

You can use TRANSPOSE/SETTING button.
Each press the TRANSPOSE/SETTING button cycles through the setting screens. If you accidentally pass the screen you want to use,keep pressing the TRANSPOSE/SETTING button untill the screen appears again.
To lower by one octave,set the value to -12


You also can use PIANO SETTING button.
Find the setting in page 07 of PIANO SETTING.

Did you try to get to Global mode, and then check if the tune is 440 hz?
Check the Global Settings. The tuning might either be altered or the key transposed..

Probably the transpose button on your keyboard has become short. You need to clean the contact by a cleaning agent such as WT-40 or similar one. If not, you need to change the button.

Two things to check... check that the "tuning" is set to A440 as the adjustment range would reach a one note offset... Next check that the glide plate has not bent the pitch to the next note... If you are using MIDI, make sure the external device is not transposed on receive.

A SIMPLE way of looking at the transposer is that it shifts EVERY key on the keyboard left (+) or right (-) by the number of the transpose. ALL keys, black and white are counted. As far as counting sharps and flats I would NOT depend on that. The transpose would for instance allow you to play a song you knew in "C" and have the sounds moved to a different key. For instance, a transpose of +2 would move EVERY C to "sounding" D, C# to D#, D# to F, E to F#, F to G, F# to G#, G to A, G# to A#, A to B, A# to C, and finally B would sound C# pitch. Given a key like G for a song that has one sharp (F#) to play this by keying it in the key of "C" you would use a transpose of +6 or minus 6. The number of key positions (including black) between the key you want to play in and the key the song is in. For a song in D that is played in C you would use either a +2 transpose or a -10 depending on whether you wanted the higher or lower octave to sound. Looking at it this way I do NOT believe the method you proposed would work... Look at it the way I described and you won't go wrong.

It sounds like it is transposed. Look for the transpose function in your user manual. It shifts the keys by half notes either up or down. I would be surprised that factory reset would not clear the transpose setting. First, realize that these keyboards are controlled by a crystal oscillator and they just don't drift enough to shift even one cent worth.

IF the unit is NOT transposed, then the other problem is LIKELY with the pitch bend wheel. Try the action of the wheel and make sure it responds by moving up and down about 50 cents. If it doesn't go both ways, it is possible the mechanism has slipped or been damaged.

Look in your manual under "transpose". The transpose feature shifts the keys up or down often up to a full octave. This allows you to play in ANY music "key" you know and generate sound in a different one for say a vocalist who only sings in another...
