PEDAL MAGIC
enables you to play the bass notes yourself, with a little
‘MAGIC’
from Lowrey.
PEDAL MAGIC
knows the appropriate bass notes by knowing the left hand chord being played, whether you
are using one-finger chords or playing your own, and with or without a rhythm style. All you need to do is
use your foot (or feet) to play the bass pedals in tempo with your song. There are two settings:
LONG &
SHORT
and
GET CLOSE
.
LONG & SHORT
: With a left hand, lower keyboard chord playing, alternate playing any long and short pedal,
in tempo with your song, and the appropriate bass notes will sound. Change your left hand chord and the
bass notes change. It does not matter which long and short pedals you play, the bass will sound great.
GET CLOSE:
Again, all you need is a left hand, lower keyboard chord playing for
PEDAL MAGIC
to work its
magic. The
GET CLOSE
selection requires you to play bass notes in tempo with the song, but also to land
on or near the appropriate pedal. For those learning to play the bass pedals this is a wonderful tool to sound
good while learning this skill.
To select between
LONG & SHORT
and
GET CLOSE
, touch the screen in th e box under the words
PEDAL
MAGIC
. Press either
SCROLL
button to change the setting.
When using the
PEDAL MAGIC
feature, with
AUTO BASS
active, you can stop playing the pedals at any time
during your song and
AUTO BASS
will begin playing for you. Begin playing the pedals yourself again and
PEDAL MAGIC
takes over and Auto Bass becomes idle.
