Auto Play Chord

How the AUTO PLAY CHORD works

When an AUTO PLAY CHORD mode is selected, an automatic accompaniment which matches the rhythm you have chosen is played in the chord which you specify with your left hand. The melody is played with your right hand.

•The accompaniment pattern of the AUTO PLAY CHORD is composed of 8 parts: DRUMS 1, 2, BASS, ACCOMP 1–5.

•The volume of each part can be adjusted with the buttons below the display. (Refer to page 30.)
