Accompaniment provided for less accomplished players

Players who are less comfortable playing chords can make use of the auto-accompaniment and chord sequencer

features oered on this instrument to make playing easier.

You can create your own accompaniment by simply setting the chord progression for each measure or beat and

pick a style—no advanced song production skills required. Also, you can rearrange the song to match a wide

range of genres without modifying the chord progression, just by changing the style.

This automatically generates accompaniment to match the chords you play in the left hand. Also, the GO:KEYS

features accompaniment styles in a variety of musical genres, which lets you build up an exciting accompaniment

to push the song forward by switching between variations.
