Auto Accompaniment

Mode 5: Full

In this mode chords played anywhere on the keyboard are detected and

used for Auto Accompaniment. Otherwise the keyboard functions normally,
and the entire range is available for playing. Chord recognition is the same
as in the Chord 1 mode. Please note that in this mode all notes you play on
the keyboard at any one time will be interpreted as the Auto Accompani-
ment chord.

NOTES

• A single note one octave lower than the lowest note of the chord is

recognized as a bass note, and a single note eleven notes upper is
recognized as a melody note.
