AUTO ACCOMPANIMENT - TYPES
HOW TO PLAY CHORDS
There are 3 different ways to specify chords on the Keyboard.
Basic Mode (One Finger)
For beginner players, a left hand chord can be specified with just one
finger. You can either press one key on the left keyboard section to
specify the root note (one-finger), or play all the notes of the chord.
Note: When the rhythm is on, even if the keys are released, the
accompaniment continues to play in the specified chord until you specify
another chord.
ONE FINGER
Press a key in the left keyboard section to specify the root note. The
major chord corresponding to this root note is automatically played in an
accompaniment pattern.
