6. Specify a chord.
• If the BASIC or ADVANCED mode was selected, specify
the chord on the keyboard section to the left of the split
point.
• An accompaniment pattern in the specified chord is auto-
matically played. Play the melody with your right hand.
• When you use FILL IN, INTRO and ENDING, the auto-
matic accompaniment is also used in these patterns.
• You can set the mode which determines how the LEFT
part sounds during an AUTO PLAY CHORD perfor-
mance. (See below.)
• In the initialized condition, when the rhythm is off, if an
AUTO PLAY CHORD mode is on and a chord is speci-
fied, the specified root note (R. BASS part) and chord
notes (CHORD part) are produced. The volumes of these
notes can be adjusted. (Refer to page 27.)
7. To stop the automatic accompaniment, press
the START/STOP button.
• If you wish the automatic accompaniment to begin and
end the performance, set the OFF/ON button to off.

MEMORY
Press the MEMORY button and select either one
of the following:
ON: Even when removing your finger from
the keys, the present chord is retained
until the next chord is specified.
OFF: When removing your finger, the chord
is deleted.
AUTO: The chord is retained when auto
accompaniment is playing but is not
retained when stopped.

ON BASS
If the ON BASS button is ON, the BASS part is
produced in the key of the lowest note of the
played chord, thus making it possible to play
chords such as C on G.
• For example, with the ON BASS button on, if you play a
C chord by pressing the keys G, C and E, the BASS part
is produced in the key of G.
Left Hold
This setting determines how the LEFT part
sounds when the LEFT button in the CONDUC-
TOR is on during a performance with the BASIC
or ADVANCED mode.
1. Press the MODE button to turn it on.
• The display changes to the following.
2. Use the LEFT HOLD: ON/OFF button to set
the mode to on or off.
OFF:
The LEFT part sounds from the pressed chord
keys.
• When BASIC is selected, the LEFT part turns off. The
LEFT part sounds if you turn it on, but <one-finger>
chords cannot be specified.
ON:
Specifying <one-finger> chords in the BASIC
mode produces the full chords; otherwise the
LEFT part notes are those of the pressed
chord keys.
• When BASIC is selected the LEFT part turns off, but it
will sound if you turn it on.
• Touch response does not function for the LEFT part.
• When the mode is set to ON, during a rhythm perfor-
mance, the LEFT part continues to play even when the
keys are released.
APC VOLUME
To adjust the volume balance between the auto-
matic accompaniment and the parts you play
manually on the keyboard, the volume of all the
automatic accompaniment parts can be lowered
as one.
⇒ Use the APC/SEQUENCER VOLUME slide
control to adjust the volume.
Example of how to play a BASIC <One-Finger> accompaniment
Play the melody with
your right hand.
