• Notes in parentheses can be

omitted.

• Playing two same root keys in the

adjacent octaves produces
accompaniment based only on
the root.

• A perfect fifth (1 + 5) produces

accompaniment 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 inver-
sions can be used — with the fol-
lowing exceptions:

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

• Inversion of the 7sus4 and

m7(11) chords are not recog-
nized if the notes shown in
parentheses are omitted.

• The auto accompaniment will

sometimes not change when
related chords are played in
sequence (e.g. some minor
chords followed by the minor sev-
enth).

• Two-note fingerings will produce

a chord based on the previously
played chord.
