Specifying Chords in the Normal Mode
When the MODE switch is set to NORMAL during step re-
cording, you can specify chords using a method that is dif-
ferent from CASIO CHORD and FINGERED fingerings. This
chord specification method can be used to input 18 different
chord types using only two keyboard keys, so chords can be
specified even if you don't know how to actually play them.

type input keyboard to specify the chord type. When input-
ting a chord with a specified bass note, pressing two keys of
the root input keyboard causes the lower note to be specified
