Chords One chord can be entered per quarter note. Place the cursor at the
required quarter-note division on the display and enter the chord via
the micro-keyboard in the normal way (see page 48). In the example
display to the left, an A major chord is entered on the first beat of the
first measure, a B minor seventh on the third beat of the first measure,
and a D major on the first beat of the second measure.
Specifying the Bass Note
For a Chord You can specify the bass note to be used with any chord by using
the [OCT DOWN] key (note the “BASS” marking below the key).
Enter the chord in the normal way, press the [OCT DOWN/BASS]
key (a slash will appear below the chord name), then press the key on
the micro-keyboard corresponding to the desired bass note (the bass
note will appear to the right of the slash).
HINT
You can add bass notes to existing chords without having to re-enter the
entire chord by simply moving the cursor to the chord and using the [OCT
DOWN/BASS] key to specify the bass note. A bass note can be removed
from a chord by placing the cursor at the chord and either re-entering the
chord or pressing the [OCT DOWN/BASS] key twice.
