Get To Grips with Note Transposition

If you want to play the saxophone, understanding transposition is essential. The saxophone is a transposing instrument, which means that the key in which you play sounds different from what is written on the music score. For example, if a guitarist, pianist, and saxophonist are jamming in the key of C, the sax will be playing the key of A for an alto sax or D for a tenor sax. The Aerophone GO’s Transpose function makes it easier to transpose between what you are reading, what you are playing, and what you are hearing.
