FINGERED 1
At least three notes are needed for the chords to be recognised.
FINGERED 2
The chord will play according to the actual notes pressed. A three note chord will trig-
ger the full accompaniment. With one or two notes, the chord will be recognised but
the notes played of the accompaniment will be limited to those actually played.
ONE FINGER
A single note played below the Split Point is recognised as the root of a major
chord.
To get a minor chord play the root and the minor third (e.g. C and Eb).
For a diminished, play the root and the diminished fi fth (C + Gb above or below C).
For a seventh chord play the root and the seventh (C + Bb above or below C).
For a major 7th, play the root and the augmented seventh (C + B above or below C).
FREESTYLE
This mode recognize the chord from any part of the keyboard, even if it is played by the
right hand, or played with both hands. The chord will not change unless at least three
notes are played at the same time. If one or two notes are played, the new chord is not
recognized and the accompaniment will not change. This feature makes it possible to
play on the entire extension of the keyboard with the sounds from UPPER 1 e 2 sections.
Selecting the Freestyle mode automatically disables the LOWER section
