Auto Bass Chord (ABC)
● Full-keyboard ABC
When this advanced auto-accompaniment mode is engaged the
Clavinova will automatically create appropriate accompaniment while
you play just about anything, anywhere on the keyboard: chords, a
bass line, arpeggiated chords, a melody line. The name of the detected
chord will appear on the display. You don’t have to worry about speci-
fying the accompaniment chords. Although Full-keyboard ABC is
designed to work with many songs, some arrangements may not be
suitable for use with this feature. Try playing a few simple songs in
the Full-keyboard ABC mode to get a feel for its capabilities.
• Chord detection occurs at approxi-
mately 8th-note intervals. Extremely
short chords — less than an 8th note
in length — may therefore not be
detected.
• The DUAL or SPLIT mode can be
used with ABC.
