you do not want to change the tempo and tone, refer to “Changing Music Styles Without Changing the Tone or Tempo (Rhythm
One Touch)” (p. 181).
• You can change the range in which chords are played. Please refer to “Changing the Keyboard’s Split Point (Split Point)” (p. 178).
When you use automatic accompaniment, the root of the chord you hold down will normally be sounded as the bass tone.
If you use the “Leading Bass” function, the lowest note of the chord you hold down will be played as the bass tone.
This means that if you hold down an inverted chord form, the bass tone that sounds will be different than usual.

The Leading Bass function is on if is lit; the function is off if this indicator is not lit.
If the Leading Bass function is on, the note name of the bass tone is shown at the right of the chord name when you specify a chord in
the left-hand side of the keyboard.
• The task of switching on/off the Leading Bass function can be assigned to a pedal. For details, refer to “Assigning the Function of the
Pedals (Left Pedal/Center Pedal/Expression Pedal)” (p. 179).
