associated to Styles only. Songs cannot exploit
this function.
The Harmony setting can be memorized to the
current Preset with STORE PRESET.

AUTO CHORD AND FIXED CHORD MODES

Chord recognition can be set to remain fixed re-
gardless of the keyboard mode setting, or to
change automatically according to the change in
the keyboard mode.
AUTO CHORD MODE: active by default, allows
changes of the chord recognition mode accord-
ing to the selected keyboard mode (Full Key-
board, Upper&Lower or Multi).
Given that the keyboard mode is memorized in a
Preset, the chord recognition can change along
with the Preset.
FIXED CHORD MODE: allows you to set a chord
recognition mode which does change with
changes in the keyboard mode (and consequently
any Preset changes).
The option selected remains memorized after
power down.

CHORD RECOGNITION MODES

The Chord Recognition modes generate the au-
tomatic accompaniments of the Styles in various
different ways according to how many notes are
pressed and where on the keyboard (above or
