Chord Fingering
How the chords are played or indicated with your left hand (in the auto
accompaniment section of the keyboard) is referred to as "fingering".
There are 2 types of fingerings as described below.
Chord Basics
Three or more notes are played together is defined as a "chord".
The most basic chord type is the "triad" consisting three notes: the
root, third and fifth degree of the corresponding scale.
A "C major triad", for example, is made up of the note C (the root), E
(the third note of the C major scale) and G (the fifth note of the
C major scale).
In the C major triad shown, the lowest note is the "root" of the chord
(this is the chord's "root position" using other chord notes for the
lowest note results in “inversion”). The root is the central sound of
the chord, which supports and anchors the other chord notes. The
distance (interval) between adjacent notes of triad in root position is
either a major or minor third.
The lowest interval in our root-position trial (between the root and the
third) determines whether the triad is a major or minor chord, and we
can shift the highest note up or down by a semitone to produce two
additional chords, as shown.
The basic characteristics of the chord sound remain intact even if we
change the order of the notes to create different inversions. Successive
chords in a chord progression can be smoothly connected, for
example, by choosing the appropriate inversions.
Reading Chord Names
Chord names tell you just about everything you need to know about a
chord (other than the inversion/voicing). The chord name tells you what
the root of a chord is, whether it is major, minor or diminished, whether
it requires a major or flatted seventh, what alterations or tension does it
use...all at a glance.
The CHORD FINGER mode
The chord Finger mode lets you finger your own chords on the auto
accompaniment section of the keyboard. This keyboard identifies both
multi finger chord and single finger chord. When it cannot identify the
multi keys, it will identify that as single finger chord.
