Turning Chord Intelligence On/

“Chord Intelligence” is a feature that intelligently plays the
correct accompaniment chords the moment you play a key
specifying a chord on the Lower keyboard during Automatic
Accompaniment.

To play a C chord on the Lower keyboard, for example, you
usually have to press down the three keys C, E, and G; but
with Chord Intelligence, you only have to press the C Key to
initiate a C chord accompaniment.

If you press the root note of the chord in the lower keyboard
when the Chord Intelligence function is off, all notes in that
chord will sound.
For example, if you press the root “C” of the C major chord
in the lower keyboard, the notes of the C major chord “C,”
“E,” and “G” will be sounded by the voice selected for the
lower part.
