With this setting, the whole right-hand (UPPER) section functions as the Chord
section as well as for melody performance. In this condition, note the following
points:
• In the right-hand (UPPER) section, you can specify the chord type as you play
the melody.
• When the Manual Bass function is turned on via the [E] button, the Voice for the
Bass part of the current Style is muted and assigned to the left-hand (LOWER)
section.
• The Chord Fingering setting (page 52) will be set to a specific type ("FIN-
GERED*") automatically, in which case you should press three or more notes
simultaneously to specify the chord. Pressing two or less notes does not change
the chord type.
• Split Point (STYLE) is unavailable.
