I would expect that the Yamaha Freeze button would work with SMF playback as well, no?
I'll try to remember off hand....
try this on your 3K/T2....
Play a SMF song push both transpose buttons at once to make sure your in key of C
While the SMF is playing push the Transpose button down a few times you will hear the song key transpose Down
Now in order to Stop this from happening you need to go into the menu & out of your choices and click Transpose "KEYBOARD" only NOT SONG
This will now allow you "While the SMF is playing" to transpose up/down without effecting the SMF song
when the song is over go back to a registration and play a few songs with style........
Stop & go back and play a SMF song press the transpose while the song is playing & it will default BACK TO SONG MODE ....correct?
The Pa800 has a GLOBAL LOCK Keyboard only Transpose feature you can write.
