Sounding a chord in the order of
its notes (Rolled Chord)
This causes the notes within a chord to be sounded consecutively, rather
than simultaneously. Since the playback speed will change according to
the force with which you play the keyboard, you can vary your playing
dynamics to create a realistic simulation of playing a guitar.

In the Chord Form screen, use
to "Rolled Chord."
