NOTE
• See the “Fingered Chord Chart” on page A-2 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 fingerings (i.e. playing E-G-C or G-C-E
instead of C-E-G) will produce 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.

FULL RANGE CHORD
This accompaniment method makes it possible to play
a total of 38 chord variations: the 15 available with
FINGERED plus 23 additional variations. The
keyboard interprets any input of three or more keys
that matches a FULL RANGE CHORD pattern to be a
chord. Any multi-key input that is not a FULL RANGE
CHORD pattern is interpreted as melody play. Because
of this, there is no need for a separate accompaniment
keyboard, and the entire keyboard from end-to-end
can be used for both melody and chords.
