I was playing at a program about a month ago and they have a Hammond B3000 (which I hate)  Well their musician didn't tell me he had it transposed so when I start to play the song and it was in the wrong key, I just about lost it.  It's so rude to transpose and then not switch it back when you are done playing.

If I recall, there is a device you can buy that will allow you to adjust the tuning by a few semi-tones in each direction.  It alters the frequency of the AC which the tone generator motor synchronizes with.

 Thats cheating! Transposing is almost as bad as asking for the chords to a song thats in a hymn book.

I always tell my sis to leave everything on neutral if she'd been transposing.
She's very nice to work with coz it's been a long time now since she's left the board transposed.


like you said, it's very frustrating to think you know what key a song is in & when you try to play along things just don't match...it's even worse if you think you were the last one to play previously...at 1st I thought either I was tone deaf all along or the board was detuned!!

I've heard about that..& some organs come with it..actually, I've seen this Techniks organ at this music store with a transpose feature..so some organists have it easy these days

I would imagine just about all electronic organs will transpose.  I was refering to the Hammond tonewheel organs.  They are more difficult to transpose since the sound is produced mechanically.  I played at my aunt's church and me and their keyboardist were never quite in the same key.  After a while, I started detuning my board and it turns out, he was tuned to A-446 instead of A-440.

I know u were probably joking man, but here is some answers to your questions:

A transposer is one who can ONLY play in one or a few keys.  W/out the transpose button, they are the sorriest musicians known to man, LOL.  J/K bout dat last sentence, but they are indeed garbage outside they key.

How do you become one?  Just learn everything in one key and hit the transpose button for every other key.  Of course, it does take an extra skill to be a good transposer.  You gotta know what key to tranpose 2, how many times to hit the button, how to smootly modulate in the middle of a song using that button, etc.  In the short run it's faster, but in the long run it's actually harder than learning to play in every key.

From what I hear (& see), the pay is great cuz most churches don't really give a care.  As long as u can hit a note, u can start with $100 a sunday easy.  The true musicians know this is not the way to go.
