Melody On Chord
The Melody On Chord (M.O.C.) feature automatically adds a harmony part to the melodies you play
on the Upper keyboard. The harmony is derived from the chords you play on the Lower keyboard —
or from the chords that you indicate when using Auto Bass Chord (see page 55).
To call up the MELODY ON CHORD page:
Press the M.O.C./L.M. SPLIT button.
