You can set the keyboard to play two
different types of auto accompani-
ment using the accompaniment keys.
•
Concert Chord
— lets you play
chords on the accompaniment
keys using chord formations of
from one to four notes. The num-
ber of keys you press determines
the type of chord that plays (see
“Concert Chord”).
•
Standard Fingering
— lets you
play chords on the accompani-
ment keys using standard chord
formations of three or four notes
(see “Standard Fingering” on
Page 18).
Notes:
• You can use the keyboard’s
rhythm controls (
FILL-IN
and
SYN-

accompaniment.
• After you press the auto accom-
paniment keys, the keyboard

Concert Chord
The concert chord method lets begin-
ning keyboard players easily select
and play a chord.
The number of accompaniment keys
you press determines the type of
chord that plays. This chart shows the
type that plays when you press one,
two, three, or four accompaniment
keys at the same time.
The lowest note you play determines
the key of the chord. For example, if
the lowest note is C, the keyboard
plays a C chord.
Note: You can press
any
labeled
note(s) to the right of the lowest note
in the chord to produce a minor, a
dominant seventh, or minor seventh
chord.
