When I open the transpose window there’s a drop down for Octave which is set at 4. What does this mean, exactly? I don’t understand what happens if you select a different number for the octave. I’ve just left it at 4 and it transposes fine. I’m just curious what this octave dropdown menu is for.
If you need a Bb3 to be tranposed a D4, it’s a major third up. Leaving them at 4 will transpose a minor 6th down
Some instruments do transpose like two octavzs higher (celesta?that kind of high pitched percussion), hence the usefulness of the numbers. Granted, I never had to use them.
