Playing Auto-accompaniment Chords

There are two ways of playing auto-accompaniment chords:
● Easy Chords
● Standard Chords
The instrument will automatically recognize the different chord types. The function is called Multi Fingering.
Press the [ACMP ON/OFF] button to turn auto-accompaniment on (page 27). The keyboard to the left of the
split point (default: 054/F#2) becomes the "accompaniment range". Play the accompaniment chords in this
area of the keyboard.
