• Use this control to lower the automatic accompaniment
volume when it is too loud relative to your manual perfor-
mance.
• At the MAX position, the volumes of the automatic
accompaniment parts correspond to their current set-
tings; at the OFF position, the volume is 0. The volume
should normally be set to MAX.
• The set values are shown in the APC column of the vol-
ume balance display. (Refer to page 27.)
• The volume can be adjusted for each part. (Refer to page
27.)
• When the position of the slide control coincides with the
actual volume, the indicator is lit. When the volume is
changed by of the PANEL MEMORY or SEQUENCER
playback, the actual volume differs from that indicated by
the position of the slide control. In this case, the indicator
is not lit.
• During SEQUENCER playback or disk DIRECT PLAY,
operation of this slide control affects the total volume of
all the playback parts.
CHORD FINDER
The CHORD FINDER can help, for example,

name, the CHORD FINDER shows you which
keys to press and even lets you hear the notes
that make up.

ton to turn it on.

2. Select CHORD FINDER.

3. Use the APC MODE button to select the auto-
matic accompaniment mode you will use to
specify chords (BASIC, ADVANCED 1).
• In the list column are shown the chords which can be
specified in each mode.
4. Use the ROOT buttons to select the root note
of the chord. Use the TYPE buttons to select
the type of chord.
• A typical way to finger the specified chord (TYPICAL) is
illustrated on a keyboard diagram.
• Each time the INVERSION button is pressed, different
INVERSION fingerings are illustrated in order. (If there is
no INVERSION fingering for the specified chord, this but-
ton is not shown on the display.)
• When the button with a picture of an ear is pressed, the
notes of the chord sound. (The octave of the illustrated
keys and that of the played tones may differ.)
5. To exit the CHORD FINDER procedure, press
the EXIT button.
