Auto Accompaniment
About the accompaniment keyboard
The lower (left) 1.5 octaves are reserved for use as an accompaniment keyboard whenever you select CASIO CHORD or FINGERED with the POWER/MODE switch. The panel above the accompaniment keyboard keys is marked with the names of the notes they play. The remainder of the keyboard (the part that is not included in the accompaniment keyboard) is called the melody keyboard. Please be sure to remember these terms, because they will be used throughout the rest of this manual.
