Full-keyboard ABC
Auto Bass Chord (ABC)
When this advanced auto-accompaniment mode is engaged (press the [FULL
KEYBOARD] button so that its indicator lights) 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. You don’t have
to worry about specifying 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.
NOTES
• Chord detection occurs at approximately 8th-note intervals. Extremely short
chords — less than an 8th note in length — may therefore not be detected.
The Conventional Full-keyboard ABC mode can be engaged by pressing the
[SINGLE FINGER] and [FINGERED] buttons simultaneously (both indicators
will light). In this mode the split point is de-activated and notes played anywhere
on the keyboard are detected and used to determine the harmonization of the ac-
companiment. In the Conventional Full-keyboard ABC mode, chord detection is
possible when at least three notes are played anywhere on the keyboard.
NOTES
• The Dual or SPLIT mode can be used with Full-keyboard ABC.
• The Full-keyboard and Conventional Full-keyboard ABC modes will be disen-
gaged and the Fingered mode will be engaged if Solo Styleplay is turned on.
• Solo Styleplay will automatically be turned off whenever the Full-keyboard or
Conventional Full-keyboard ABC mode is engaged.
• Press the [FULL KEYBOARD] button so that its indicator goes out when you want
to exit from the FULL-KEYBOARD ABC mode. To exit from the Conventional
Full-keyboard ABC mode press the [SINGLE FINGER] or [FINGERED] button
twice.

AUTO ACCOMPANIMENT
MIN
MAX
The RHYTHM, CHORD 1, CHORD 2, and BASS volume controls can be
used to adjust the volume of the corresponding accompaniment parts when using
ABC. In general, CHORD 1 controls rhythmic chords while CHORD 2 controls
more decorative chords (arpeggios, etc.). The volume of the keyboard can be inde-
pendently controlled by using the BASS volume control while holding the [MIDI/
TRANSPOSE] button.
NOTES
• Some styles may not use all four parts: RHYTHM, CHORD 1, CHORD 2, and
BASS.
• Usually the CHORD 1 and CHORD 2 parts will not play simultaneously in the
Full-keyboard ABC mode to prevent possible conflict with the melody. The sound
of the silent part can be restored by changing the setting of the corresponding
volume control — CHORD 1 or CHORD 2.
