5Easy Accompaniment for Other Instruments
●Syncopated Chords Chords can be syncopated (i.e. the chord actually begins an eighth-
note before the beat on which it is entered) by using the [OCT UP]
key (note the “ec” marking below the key). Enter the chord in the
normal way, then press the [OCT UP] key (a syncopation symbol will
appear below the chord name).
HINT
You can add syncopation to existing chords without having to re-enter the
entire chord by simply moving the cursor to the chord and pressing the
[OCT UP] key. Syncopation can be removed from a chord by placing the
cursor at the chord and pressing the [OCT UP] key.
●Erasing Chords The function key immediately to the right of “ers” on the display
can be used to erase the chord at which the cursor is located.
