Playing Backing Parts with the Performance Assistant Technology
This feature lets you play your own backing parts on the keyboard along with Song playback, and have them
sound perfectly appropriate (even though you might be playing wrong notes).
1
Select a Song containing chord data.
The Performance Assistant Technology applies only to Songs containing chord data. To confirm whether
the selected Song contains chord data or not, return to the Main display, then start playback. If the current
Song contains chord data, the Main display shows the current chord type. After stopping playback, go to
the next step.

Call up the operation display.
