The indicator of the [Harmony Intelligence] button will blink.

To cancel the procedure, press the [Display/Exit] button.

3. Once again, press the [Harmony Intelligence] button.

The indicator of the [Harmony Intelligence] button will light, and the Harmony Intelligence is confirmed.

You can also play the upper manual to confirm the type of the Harmony Intelligence.

The number of notes of the harmony will depend on the Harmony Intelligence type.

Harp-type harmony intelligence will not sound the keys you play. Use your left hand to play a chord in the lower keyboard and use your right hand to play a glissando on the upper keyboard, and a beautiful harp glissando will be produced.
