With Auto Accompaniment, simply select an accompaniment
pattern. Each time you play a chord with your left hand the
appropriate accompaniment will play automatically. It’s like
having a personal backup group along with you wherever
you go.
• Auto Accompaniments are made up of the following three
parts.
(1) Rhythm
(2) Bass
(3) Harmony
You can have only the rhythm part play, or you can have all
three parts play at the same time.
The rhythm part is the foundation of each Auto
Accompaniment. Your Digital Keyboard comes with a variety
of built-in rhythms, including 8-beat and waltz. Use the
following procedure to play the basic rhythm part.
1.
Press bn RHYTHM.
2.
Use bq (10-key) to select the rhythm number you
want.
• For information about rhythm types, see the “Rhythm
List” (page A-5).
3.
Press bl START/STOP or 8s REW.
This starts the rhythm.
4.
Play along with the rhythm.
5.
To stop the rhythm, press bl START/STOP again.
You can use the tempo setting operation to change the tempo
of pattern play. See “Changing the Tempo” (page EN-12).
Playing a chord with your left hand automatically adds bass
and harmony accompaniment parts to the currently selected
rhythm. It is just like having your own personal back up
group on call.
1.
Start play of the Auto Accompaniment rhythm part.
2.
Press bm ACCOMP.
This enables chord input on the accompaniment
keyboard.
3.
Use the accompaniment keyboard to play chords.
This will cause bass and harmony Auto Accompaniment
parts to be added to the rhythm part.
4.
Play other chords with left hand as you play the
melody with your right hand.
5.
Pressing bm ACCOMP again returns to rhythm
only accompaniment.
You can select from among the following five chord input
modes.
• FINGERED 1
• FINGERED 2
• FINGERED 3
• CASIO CHORD
• FULL RANGE CHORD
1.
Hold down bm$ CHORDS until the chord input
mode selection screen appears on the display.
2.
Use the bq (10-key) [–] and [+] keys to select the
chord input mode you want.
■ FINGERED 1, 2, and 3
With these three input modes, you play chords on the
accompaniment keyboard using their normal chord
fingerings. Some chord forms are abbreviated, and can be
fingered with one or two keys.
See page A-7 for information about chords that are supported
and how they are fingered on the keyboard.
● FINGERED 1
Play the component notes of the chord on the keyboard.
● FINGERED 2
Unlike FINGERED 1, 6th input is not possible.
● FINGERED 3
Unlike FINGERED 1, allows input of fraction chords with the
lowest keyboard note as the bass note.
