The Roland's (at least, the E and G-series) always have a front panel button for this function (and an FC-7 and Footswitch choice for E80/G70). For those of us that play in Pianostyle Mode, this is one of the more important buttons to have easy access to, yet alone it's general use.
The G70, BTW, has front panel buttons for transpose... no sub-menus there.
Yeah, I knew the Rolands had a dedicated Bass Inversion button...I don't mind the Yamaha's setup too badly, you can get used to it pretty easily, but it would be better with a dedicated button...there is also a pedal option on the Yammies as well....that's quite handy.
The Roland Piano Mode is cool...don't quite have it as well implemented on the Yamaha...at least not yet...maybe they'll come up with their own eventually.
Only being able to access Transpose via a menu would be a more serious issue with me...thankfully you've got dedicated buttons on your G70...makes doing those cool transpositions on turnarounds a lot of fun...transposing up/down a 4th or 5th is a real hoot too.
I figured the E-60/50 didn't have dedicated transpose buttons....just wasn't quite sure about the G70.
Now, I wonder if the Korg PA-500 has them....that looks like a cool little 'board.
