Minor, seventh and minor seventh chords are also easily produced.
• When three or more keys of a chord are pressed, it is recognized as a <fingered> chord.
<fingered>
In the <fingered>, you specify the chord by play-
ing all the notes in the chord.
• Play at least three notes to specify the chord.
• If the CHORD FINDER procedure is used, you can see the
types of chords that can be specified and the keys you
press to play them. (Refer to page 47.)

ADVANCED 1 mode
This mode accepts chords specified with <fin-
gered> and disregards all unrecognizable chord
specifications.
• It recognizes many more chords than the BASIC mode’s
<fingered> chords.
ⅢⅢⅢⅢ
ADVANCED 2 mode
This mode accepts chords specified with <fin-
gered> and, for unrecognizable chords, it plays
the auto accompaniment according to the keys
pressed.
• It recognizes many more chords than the BASIC mode’s
<fingered> chords.
ⅢⅢⅢⅢ
PIANIST mode
In the PIANIST mode, the entire keyboard can
be used to specify chords <fingered>
(ADVANCE) for the automatic accompaniment; a
RIGHT part is assigned to all the keys, and the
keyboard does not split.
• When specifying chords, if you press a key a perfect 5th or
more below the lowest note of the chord, the BASS part
becomes a pattern based on that note.
<APC HOLD>
If this function is assigned to the left pedal, for
example, pressing the left pedal will play the cur-
rently specified chord in that timing, allowing you
to focus your performance on a solo melody.
• The accompaniment continues in the same chord as long
as the PEDAL is depressed, and it does not change even if
other chords are played.
• To change the PEDAL assignment, refer to page 120.
