Not a blame thing, but as live keyboard player, dedicated transpose buttons on the board are a must, one of the few things I don't like about Kronos.

I also carry my glasses (all the young players now scoffing...just wait!!), but again having to find glasses, put on, transpose, take off etc just too slow during live set.
Sorry, Roadman...

I didn't mean you your blaming although it sounded like that. I meant I don't blame Korg.

Hi All, just to clarify, my original comments are around transposing on the fly, in my case we have occasional guest singers, and on others the band knows a song in a changed key and I know the original, which is not on our regular set. So it's very much an in the moment thing, and the transpose indicator in setlist is just too damn small!! Busy stage, lighting, lots happening etc.

If it's an actual permanent key change, il generally just learn song in the new key, and can sometimes do this on the hoof, but depends on song and keys etc.
