Chord Types
CASIO CHORD accompaniment lets you play four types of
chords with minimal fingering.
See the “Fingered Chord Chart” on page A-4 for details on
playing chords with other roots.
*
1:
Inverted fingerings cannot be used. The lowest note is the
root.
*
2:
The same chord can be played without pressing the 5th
G.

NOTE
• Except for the chords specified in note
*
1
above, inverted fin-
gerings (i.e. playing E-G-C or G-C-E instead of C-E-G) will pro-
duce the same chords as the standard fingering.
• Except for the exception specified in note
*
2
above, all of the
keys that make up a chord must be pressed. Failure to press
even a single key will not play the desired FINGERED chord.
❚
NOTE
• The accompaniment keyboard can be used for playing chords
only. No sound will be produced if you try playing single melo-
dy notes on the accompaniment keyboard.
