@ Purpose:
Selects the Fingered Chord, Single Finger, or Manual
Bass mode for ABC Accompaniment.
@ Procedure:
Use the left [-] and [+] buttons to select the
"FingeredChord," "SingleFinger," or "M-.Bass" mode.
Note that when the "M.Bass" mode is selected a new pa-
rameter appears to the right of the screen. This is the voice
to be played in the manual-bass (left-hand) section of the
keyboard. Use the right [-] and [+] buttons to select the
desired Manual Bass voice.
@ Notes:
General operation of the Fingered Chord, Single Finger,
and Manual Bass ABC modes is as follows:
@ Fingered Chord Mode
This is the default ABC mode and its use is described
in detail on page 17 of the Getting Started manual. The
Fingered mode lets you finger your own chords on the
left-hand section of the keyboard, while the PSR-6700
supplies appropriately orchestrated rhythm, bass, and
chord accompaniment in the selected style.
@ Single Finger Mode
Single-finger accompaniment makes it simple to
produce beautifully orchestrated accompaniment using
major, seventh, minor and minor-seventh chords by
pressing a minimum number of keys on the left-hand
section of the keyboard. General operation is the same
as the Fingered Chord mode (see page 17 of the Getting
Started manual), except that the abbreviated chord
fingerings described below are used:
ae
Playing Minor, Seventh, and Minor-seventh
Chords in the Single-finger Mode
@ For a minor chord, press the root key and a black key
to its left.
@ For a seventh chord, press the root key and a white
key to its left.
@ For a minor-seventh chord, press the root key and
both a white and black key to its left.
Also note that the split mode (ORCH.2<»1) can not
be engaged when the Single Finger accompaniment is
selected.
@ Manual Bass Mode
The Manual Bass mode provides an alternative to the
normal split keyboard. The bass voice assigned to the
left-hand keyboard section is monophonic. You can
select any of the PSR-6700's 100 preset or custom
voices to play on the lower section of the keyboard —
of course, it's normal to choose a bass voices for the
left hand.
