BASS
This is essentially the same as the NORMAL mode, above, except that
the lowest note played in the auto accompaniment section of the key-
board will be played by the bass part rather than the chord root.
FULL
In this mode the PSR-520 automatically differentiates between left-hand
chords and right-hand melody, no matter where they are played on the
keyboard. Right-hand chords with a left-hand bass line — single or oc-
tave — are also recognized. In the former case left-hand chords are rec-
ognized and accompaniment is produced in the same way as in the NOR-
MAL mode, in the latter case the right-hand chords are recognized in the
same way but the accompaniment bass line will be based on the left-hand
bass line you play. This means you can play in just about any style any-
where on the keyboard, and the PSR-520 will automatically produce
appropriate accompaniment.
