116 Chapter 2. SONG MODE
• If you are using fingered chords, enter as follows.
1) Be sure that the cursor is at the fingered-chord ON/OFF
area, and that the setting is FNGRD. Leave the cursor in
this area.
2) Play the desired chord within the “fingered-chord zone” on
your external MIDI keyboard (→ p.299). The QY700 will
automatically set the chord root and type.
3) While continuing to hold down the chord in the keyboard
zone, press a single note to the left of the zone to set the
“on-bass,” or play a chord to the left of the zone to set the
“original bass.”
4) Release the notes to record the chord. (The chord is recorded
at the instant that the notes are released.)
7. When you are ready to stop recording, press s.

• Entering the syncopation
Although chords generally cover a single full beat, it is pos-
sible to time the recording so that you get an eighth- or
sixteenth-note syncopated lead-in. To get an eighth-note lead
in, enter the chord at least one eighth-note ahead of the beat.
To get the 16th-note syncopation, enter the chord one 16th-
note ahead of the beat.
• You can use song job 00 (UNDO/REDO) to cancel a re-
cording that you have just made. This allows you to recover
data that you have inadvertently over-recorded. (→ p.141)
• Remember to set the appropriate parameters (such as meas-
ure, tempo, meter, click beat, click mode, count, and trans-
position) before beginning the recording. (→ p.109)
• It is a good idea to select a slow tempo. This will make it
easier to enter the chord values at the right time.
• You can use step recording of the PATTERN track to re-
view or modify the recorded chords. (→ p.127)
