This feature is very effective when used with the AUTO PLAY CHORD.

mony style.

When the OCTAVE, HARD ROCK or FANFARE style is selected, the TECHNI-CHORDfunctions even when the keyboard is not split.

ORCHESTRATOR

You can specify which part is used for the har- mony tones. Your TECHNI-CHORDperfor- mance is enhanced by selecting harmony sounds different from the sounds you play and the sounds produced by the automatic accompa- niment.

1.Use the ORCHESTRATOR and buttons

to select the part for the harmony notes.

If CONDUCTOR is selected, the harmony notes are pro- duced in the sounds of the part which is currently selected in the CONDUCTOR (RIGHT 1, RIGHT 2). In other words, the harmony notes are produced in the same sound as the melody notes. If both RIGHT 1 and RIGHT 2 are on, the harmony notes are produced in the sound of the RIGHT 1 part.

In the case of EASY RECORD (see page 58), when set to a PART other than PART 4, the TECHNI-CHORDsound is not recorded; so when you use EASY RECORD, please set to CONDUCTOR or PART 4.
