Auto Accompaniment

FILL-IN
SYNCHRO
This keyboard automatically plays bass and chord parts in
accordance with the chords you finger. The bass and chord
parts are played using sounds and tones that are
automatically selected to select the rhythm you are using.
All of this means that you get full, realistic accompaniments
for the melody notes you play with your right hand, creating
the mood of an one-person ensemble.

RHYTHM
• "00 8 Beat 1" is the initial default rhythm setting whenever
you turn on keyboard power.
• You can also increment the displayed rhythm number
by pressing [+] and decrement it by pressing [–].
• Accompaniment sounds (chords, bass, etc.) do not
sound while a metronome rhythm (No. 95 to 99: 0, 2, 3,
4, 6) is being used, even if the POWER/MODE switch
setting is "CASIO CHORD" or "FINGERED". Because
of this, you should set the POWER/MODE switch to
"NORMAL" when using a metronome rhythm.
To play a rhythm
Set the POWER/MODE switch to NORMAL.
Press the START/STOP button to start play of the
currently selected rhythm.
To stop rhythm play, press the START/STOP button
again.
• All of the keyboard keys are melody keys while the
POWER/MODE switch is set to NORMAL.
