The way to play a chord when playing the Style dif-
fers by Fingering Types. Set the desired Fingering
Type via Function Number 008 (page 21) and enjoy
playing the keyboard with the Style.
Smart Chord (Default setting)
You can play the Style with playing only root note of a
chord.
Smart Chord Key setting
When playing with the Style played with the Smart
Chord function, you need to set the “key” of the
Songs you want to play in advance. Set the number
of the sharps (#) or flats (b) on your music score via
the Function setting “Smart Chord Key” (Function
Number 009; page 21).
For example, when you want to play the music score
below, you need to set the Smart Chord Key to “FL2”
(2 flats).
Smart Chord Chart
When setting the Fingering Type to Smart Chord, the
appropriate chord plays according to the root note of
a chord. However, the melody of some Songs may
not be suitable for the chord. For details on the
chords you can play, refer to “Smart Chord Chart” on
page 33.
Multi Finger
With this Fingering Type, you can use the following
two methods to play the Styles.
Fingered: Lets you play the notes of the chords in
the normal way.
Single Finger: Lets you easily play chords using
only one, two, or three fingers based on the simple
rule (refer to “SONG BOOK” on page 8). (Only for
Major, Minor, Seventh, and Minor seventh chords)
For details on the way to play a chord with “Multi Fin-
ger”, refer to “SONG BOOK”.
Since chord information and some music scores in the
“SONG BOOK” (page 8) gives you indications that let you
experience the performance along with Styles, refer to that
as well as this manual.
How to Play Chords when Play-
ing the Style (Fingering Type)
When playing a Song which modulates (changes key) in
the middle, “Multi Finger” is recommended.
