Auto Accompaniment
NOTE
• Except for the chords specified in note*
fingerings (i.e. playing E-G-C or G-C-E instead of C-E-
G) will produce the same chords as the standard
fingering.
• Except for the exception specified in note*
of the keys that make up a chord must be pressed.
Failure to press even a single key will not play the desired
FINGERED chord.
FULL RANGE CHORD
This accompaniment method provides a total of 38 different
chord types: the 15 chord types available with FINGERED
plus 23 additional types. The keyboard interprets any input
of three or more keys that matches a FULL RANGE CHORD
pattern to be a chord. Any other input (that is not a FULL
RANGE CHORD pattern) is interpreted as melody play.
Because of this, there is no need for a separate accompaniment
keyboard, so the entire keyboard, from end to end, can be
used for both melody and chords.

NOTE

the notes that form a chord in any combination ( ).
• When the composite notes of a chord are separated by
6 or more notes, the lowest sound becomes the bass
( ).
