Change note range of MIDI keyboard

I have a 32 key Midi, where the bottom C is set to C2. I was wondering if I would be able to change the octave?

Does your MIDI keyboard have an Octave button. If not, you can adjust the Transpose parameter in the Inspector, has to be done for each track. However, almost all MIDI keyboards have an octave/transpose button.

Thank you so much for such a fast response. MIDI does have an octave transpose button, however it doesn't appear to work, so I will try adjust the transpose parameter. :)

I have consulted the manual and have edited the octave + and - buttons. They now function properly. Thankyou very much
