Press the [SINGLE FINGER] button to select the SINGLE FINGER mode
(the SINGLE FINGER indicator will light).
Select the desired accompaniment using the style selectors (see "Style Selec-
tion" on page 17).
Use the TEMPO [ ] and [ ] buttons to set the desired accompaniment tempo
if necessary (see "Tempo Control" on page 17).
Pressing any key on the ABC section of the keyboard (up to the split point —
normally the F#2 key) will cause the automatic chord and bass accompaniment to
begin (synchro start is automatically selected in the ABC mode). If you press a "C"
key, for example, a C-major accompaniment will be played. Press another key in
the ABC section of the keyboard to select a new chord. The key you press will
always determine the "root" of the chord played (i.e. "C" for a C chord) .
