Looking Up Chords Using the
Chord Dictionary
The Dictionary function is useful when you know the
name of a certain chord and want to quickly learn
how to play it.

Press and hold the [LESSON] button for
longer than a second to call up “Dict.”
This operation will divide the entire keyboard into
the three ranges as illustrated below.
• The range to the right of “ROOT”:
Lets you specify the chord root, but produces
no sound.
• The range between “CHORD TYPE” and
“ROOT”:
Lets you specify the chord type, but produces
no sound.
• The range to the left of “CHORD TYPE”:
Lets you play and confirm the chord specified
in the above two ranges.

the [+/YES] or [-/NO] button.

• About major chords: Simple major chords are usually
indicated only by the root note. For example, “C” refers
to C major. However, when specifying major chords
here, make sure to press the key of “M” (major) after
pressing the root note.

you also need to specify the chord type.
