■ Getting Help With Chords
.........................................................................
The CHORD ASSIST function in the ACCOMPANIMENT MODE
display uses the keyboard guide lamps to show you appropriate
fingerings for chords.
Chord Assistance
The Chord Assistance feature is essen-
tially an electronic “chord book” that
shows you appropriate fingerings for
chords; it is useful when you want to
quickly learn how to play certain chords.
Simply specify the desired chord via the
display, and the fingerings for the Fin-
gered 1 method are indicated by the
keyboard guide lamps.
Z Turn the Chord Assistance function on.
• If the [ACMP ON] button is off, it will
turn on.
• If the split point is set below F # 2, it will
automatically be reset to F # 2.
• The keyboard guide lamps do not
indicate the split point when Chord
Assistance is on, since they are used
to indicate chord fingerings instead.
Press the CHORD ASSIST button.
➔ The CHORD ASSIST display appears, and the accompaniment
mode automatically changes to Fingered 1.
X Start the Auto Accompaniment.
Press [START/STOP] or use the Synchronized Start function (page
65) to start the Auto Accompaniment.
C Enter the chord root.
ROOT function
Settings: See sidebar on page 72. Use the ROOT button to select a root.
➔ The ROOT function is highlighted, and the root changes.
If you hold the ROOT button down, the
INVERT setting may also change.
When the ROOT function is highlighted, you can also use the data
dial or the [–] and [+] buttons to select a root.
