The Chord Sequence Function

Z

Engage the Chord Sequence Function ................................................................................................

Press the [CHORD SEQUENCE] button. The red [ABC] and [RHYTHM]

track button indicators will light, and the ABC FINGERED mode will be auto-
matically selected — switch to the SINGLE FINGER mode if you prefer. If the
SINGLE FINGER mode was already selected it will remain engaged.

NOTES

• The chord sequence data will replace any previous ABC data.

• Up to 200 measures can be recorded using the Chord Sequence function.

The CHORD SEQUENCE function provides a convenient way to enter chord sequences and style changes one at a time.

Enter the Chords and/or Style Changes ...............................................................................................

Make the required style changes (style number, normal/variation, fill-in, intro/

ending, and tempo, as necessary), play and hold a chord on the left-hand section of
the keyboard, and press the [q] key (look for the “q ” symbol above the F6 key) or
the [w] key (G6) to enter the chord for a quarter note or whole note, respectively.
You can move one beat backward by pressing the [?] key (F#6).

Continue entering chords in this manner until your sequence is complete.

NOTES

• The number of the measure to be entered is shown on the TEMPO display, while

the beat to be entered is shown on the BEAT display.

• If no chords are entered, the result will be a rhythm-only sequence.
