• Notes in parentheses can
be omitted.

• If you play any three
adjacent keys (including
black keys), the chord
sound will be cancelled and
only the rhythm instruments
will continue playing
(CHORD CANCEL function).

• Playing two same root
keys in the adjacent octaves
produces a pattern based
only on the root.

• A perfect fifth (1 + 5)
produces a pattern based
only on the root and fifth,
which can be used with
both major and minor
chords.

• The chord fingerings listed
are all in “root” position,
but other inversions can be
used — with the following
exceptions:

m7, m7b5, 6, m6, sus4,
aug, dim7, 7
b5, 6(9),
m7(11), 1+2+5.

• Inversion of the 7sus4
chord are not recognized if
the 5th is omitted.

• The Pattern will some-
times not change when
related chords are played in
sequence (e.g. some minor
chords followed by the
minor seventh).

• Two-note fingerings will
produce a chord based on
the previously played chord.
