How to use the AUTO PLAY CHORD
1. Select the desired rhythm and sound(s), and
set the tempo.
2. Press the AUTO PLAY CHORD’s OFF/ON
button to turn it on.
3. Press the AUTO PLAY CHORD’s MODE but-
ton to turn it on.
• The display looks similar to the following.
4. Select an AUTO PLAY CHORD mode (BASIC,
FINGERED or PIANIST).
• After a few seconds, the display returns to the
previous display.
• If the BASIC or FINGERED mode was
selected, the keyboard automatically splits
into right and left sections.
MEMORY
When the MEMORY button is ON, even when
the keys are released, the chord is memorized
and the accompaniment continues to play until
you specify another chord.
ON BASS
If the ON BASS button is ON while the FIN-
GERED or PIANIST mode is selected, the BASS
part is produced in the key of the lowest note of
the played chord, thus making it possible to play
chords such as C on G.
• For example, with the ON BASS button on, if
you play a C chord by pressing the keys G, C
and E, the BASS part is produced in the key
of G.
5. Press the START/STOP button to begin the
rhythm.
• You can start the rhythm by playing a key on
the keyboard. (Refer to page 51.)
6. Specify a chord.
• If the ONE FINGER or FINGERED mode was
selected, specify the chord on the keyboard
section to the left of the split point.
• An accompaniment pattern in the specified
chord is automatically played. Play the melody
with your right hand.
• When you use FILL IN, INTRO and ENDING,
the automatic accompaniment is also used in
these patterns.
• In the ONE FINGER mode, the sound as-
signed to the left section of the keyboard
(LEFT part) does not sound in the initialized
condition.
• You can set the mode which determines how
the LEFT part sounds during an AUTO PLAY
CHORD performance. (Refer to the next
page.)
• In the initialized condition, when the rhythm is
off, if an AUTO PLAY CHORD mode is on and
a chord is specified, the specified root note
(R. BASS part) and chord notes (CHORD part)
are produced. The volumes of these notes can
be adjusted. (Refer to page 29.)
7. To stop the automatic accompaniment, press
the START/STOP button.
• If you wish the automatic accompaniment to
begin and end the performance, set the
OFF/ON button to off.
