Chord name

5Check to make sure that the chord name on the display is the one you want. If it isn’t, repeat the above from step 2.

NOTE

•You can also use the [+] and [–] buttons to change the displayed chord name.

•The tone used to sound chords you play on the accompaniment keyboard while using the Chord Book is the same tone used by the accompaniment part of the rhythm that was selected before you entered the Chord Book mode. Depending on the rhythm that was selected, some of the notes that make up a chord may be omitted when you play the chord on the accompaniment keyboard in the Chord Book Mode. This is due to the internal chord conversion function, arrangements, and polyphony limitations.

•You can press the START/STOP button to start play of a rhythm pattern and then use the Chord Book to specify a chord. This will cause the rhythm pattern to change in accordance with the specified chord.

•Changing to a different rhythm pattern (rhythm number) exits the Chord Book mode.
