Casio LK-40 manual To play a Fingered auto-accompaniment

Page 28

Important!

•If you play one or two notes only in the left hand, or three notes that do not make up a recognizable chord formation, no sound will be produced. FINGERED mode requires a conventional three or four-note chord formation to produce an auto- accompaniment. Also, note that auto-chords only work in conjunction with rhythm patterns, and not independently of them.

Notes

•The above examples show only one of the possible fingerings for each chord. Note that you can play the notes that form a chord in any combination. Each of the following fingerings for example, produces the same C chord.

Accompaniment keyboard

•See the “Fingered Chord Charts” on page A-4 for information on the fingerings of chords for all roots.
