Seriously... Excerpt from the manual:
The OCTAVE SHIFT buttons transpose their respective Parts in octave intervals. The number of
octaves available for each Part to be transposed up or down depends on whether you are in KB
SPLIT mode or not, designed to always give you access to the entire playable range for both Parts.
The TRANSPOSE function, activated by a single press of the button, will allow the keyboard to be
transposed +/- 6 semitones. Pressing and holding the TRA NSPOSE button while operating the
VAL UE dial adjusts the amount of transposition.

Yes, you're right, Nord player can transpose at sight in any keys right away to match the singer voice when the pitch of the song is too high or the guitarist who doesn't know that there is some # and b sometimes....
Just kidding but I did some transposing exercises at sight in the pass.... Was quite tough though....
