Adjusting the Accompaniment

of your accompaniment separately from

from 0 (no sound) to 9 (loudest) on
the keypad. The number appears on
the display as you press the key.

its default value of 7, press

ment volume separately for your key-

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 chord
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 low-
est 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.
