Mode 2: Chord 2

This is essentially the same as the Chord 1 mode, above, except that the

lowest note played in the Auto Accompaniment section of the keyboard will
be played by the bass part rather than the chord root.

●

Mode 3: Single

SINGLE mode fingering makes it simple to produce beautifully orches-

trated accompaniment using major, seventh, minor and minor-seventh
chords by pressing a minimum number of keys in the Auto Accompaniment
section of the keyboard. The accompaniment produced is perfectly matched
to the currently selected accompaniment style.

Major Chords:

If you press a “C” key in the left-hand section of the keyboard, for ex-

ample, a C-major accompaniment will be played. Press another key in the
left-hand section of the keyboard to select a new chord. The key you press
will always determine the “root” of the chord played (i.e. “C” for a C
chord).

Minor Chords:

Simultaneously press the root key and a black key to its left.

Seventh Chords:

Simultaneously press the root key and a white key to its left.

Minor-seventh Chords:

Simultaneously press the root key and both a white and black key to its

left.

NOTES

• The Auto Accompaniment will continue playing even if you lift your

fingers from the Auto Accompaniment keys. You only need to press
the Auto Accompaniment keys when changing chords.

●

Mode 4: Multi

This is a combination of the Single and Chord 1 modes. In this mode the

PSR-410 automatically discriminates between Single and Chord 1 mode
fingerings and generates the appropriate accompaniment.

NOTES

• If more than two keys are played and all but the highest key are black

keys, and the chord is not recognized by the Chord 1 mode, the high-
est note will be interpreted as the root of a minor (m) chord.

• If more than three keys are played and, excluding the highest key, are

a mixture of black and white keys, and the chord is not recognized by
the Chord 1 mode, the highest note will be interpreted as the root of a
minor-seventh (m7) chord.

• If more than two keys are played and all but the highest key are white

keys, and the chord is not recognized by the Chord 1 mode, the high-
est note will be interpreted as the root of a seventh (7) chord.
