Using Rhythm Performance

When Automatic Accompaniment is used, and the Pedal [To Lower] button is
ON, the Pedal Bass voice will normally play the root note (p. 284) of the
chord you play on the Lower keyboard.

If the Leading Bass function is enabled, the lowest note of the chord you play
on the Lower keyboard will then be used as the bass note (the bottom note of
the chord). This allows the bass to be a note other than the root of the chord
you play and the bass note will change when inverted chords are played (p.
284).
