Specifying Chords in the Normal Mode

When the MODE button is set to Normal during step recording, you can specify chords using a method that is different from CASIO Chord and Fingered fingerings. This chord specification method can be used to input 18 different chord types using only two keyboard keys, so chords can be specified even if you don’t know how to actually play them.

Specifying the Length of a Note

During step recording, the number buttons are used to specify the length of each note.

Note lengths

Use number buttons [1] through [6] to specify whole notes (), half notes (), quarter notes ( ), eighth notes (), 16th notes (), and 32nd notes ().

Example: To specify a quarter note ( ), press [3].

When inputting a chord with a specified bass note, pressing two keys of the root input keyboard causes the lower note to be specified as a bass note.
