to a chord progression suitable for the rhythm when you switch the
rhythm.

MEMO
• You can also change the Auto Chord Prog. Sw setting by holding
down the SESSION PARTNER [START/STOP] button and using the
SESSION PARTNER [VARIATION] button.
• If the Auto Chord Prog. Sw is "Off, " the SESSION PARTNER [START/
STOP] button starts blinking; Session Partner is standing by for
playback. When you enter a chord from the keyboard, the rhythm
will start playing. To stop playback, press the SESSION PARTNER
[START/STOP] button once again.
• When entering chords from the keyboard, you don't have to
continue holding down the chord. The accompaniment will keep
using the same chord until you specify the next chord.
• Instead of pressing all notes in the chord, you can use a simplified
fingering to specify the chords. Refer to "Chord Fingering List" (p. 100)
for more about how to specify chords.
• You can play the left-hand tone while specifying the chords with
your left hand. Press the [SPLIT] button to turn it off, and then
press the [SPLIT] button once again so it's lit. When you play in the
left-hand zone of the keyboard, you'll hear the left-hand tone.
