Using Auto Accompaniment
• If you press and hold the [SYNC-
START/STOP] button the
“InitSnd?” function will be se-
lected — see page 74.
Pressing the [SYNC-START/STOP] button alone causes a straight start
to occur when the first note or chord is played. Press the [SYNC-
START/STOP] button and then the appropriate [INTRO] and [MAIN]
buttons for a synchronized introduction start. The BEAT display will
flash at the current tempo when a synchronized start mode has been se-
lected.
The synchro start mode can be disengaged prior to actually starting the
accompaniment by pressing the [SYNC-START/STOP] button a second
time.

Play On the Auto-accompaniment Section
Of the Keyboard
...........................................................................................................................................
As soon as you play any fingering that the PSR-520 can “recognize” on
the left-hand section of the keyboard (or anywhere on the keyboard if the
FULL fingering mode is selected), the PSR-520 will automatically begin to
play the appropriate bass line and chord parts along with the selected style.
The accompaniment will continue playing even if you release the keys.
The chord name recognized will be shown above “CHORD” in the dis-
play.
