Do you also have some ideas about the key mappings (the real purpose of this thread)? Or look into the patch whether the designed keys are OK.

Mmmm:
To do the key mappings why don't you use the sim?

ant:
Now I understand. We actualy stretch the file in the pitch screen. Scretching effects the pitch and the tempo. The pitch can be measured in semitones and the tempo in percentage.
As you see you convinced me of the toggling.  ;)
I own a H320 for which I'd propose the 'A-B' Button. But I think you already did the Key mapping for the H3xx players.

But one little suggestion is still left. Can you rename the menu entry for the pitch screen to 'Pitch & Tempo'?

On the other hand, if I am using this feature to practice a difficult musical passage (which I do), it is far more useful to display in semitones (or half-steps, as we call them in the U.S.).  A change of "200%" is less useful than a change of "12 semitones" or "1 octave."  So both of these designations can be useful, depending on what exactly it is that you are using the feature to accomplish.

Because I don't want / have possibility to build the sim for all platforms. But mainly because by using the sim (and not the real device) you can't get the feeling whether the key is a pleasure to use.

(Almost) exactly my case

Yes, that would be a useful feature but that's another patch. We're talking about changing the pitch here, not about displaying it. A patch should be as atomic as possible, no?
