Using the Chord Memory Function (Chord Memory)
This causes the notes within a chord to be sounded consecutively, rather
than simultaneously. Since the playback speed will change according to
the force with which you play the keyboard, you can vary your playing
dynamics to create a realistic simulation of playing a guitar.
1. Hold down [SHIFT] and press [CHORD MEMORY].
The chord memory screen appears.
2. Press [F1 (Rolled Chord)] so it lights red.
With this setting, the notes of the chord will be sounded
consecutively when you play the keyboard.

are sounded
You can change the order in which the notes of a chord are sounded.
1. Hold down [SHIFT] and press [CHORD MEMORY].

3. Either turn the VALUE dial or use [INC]/[DEC] to change a
value.
Value
UP: Notes will be sounded in order from bottom
to top.
DOWN: Notes will be sounded in order from top to
bottom.
ALTERNATE: The order in which the notes are sounded
will change each time you play the
keyboard.
Not only can you use the prepared internal Chord Forms, which
determine the constituent notes of chords played using the Chord
Memory function, but you can also freely create and rewrite them as
well.
1. Hold down [SHIFT] and press [CHORD MEMORY].

You can press [F6 (Preview)] to hear the chord that you are

Forms
Saving the Chord Forms You
Have Created
A chord form is not part of any patch or performance, but rather
independent data. Therefore you can use a single chord form in
different Patches and Performances. In Performance mode you
can save these settings individually for each performance. These
settings cannot be saved in a patch.
If you want to save your settings, press [WRITE] and save the
performance.
