Using Auto Accompaniment
With Auto Accompaniment, simply select the
accompaniment rhythm you want and the matching
accompaniment (drums, guitar, etc.) will play
automatically when you play a chord with your left
hand. It’s like having your own personal backup group
along with you wherever you go.
This Digital Piano has 180 built-in Auto
Accompaniment patterns, which are divided into
seven groups. You can edit built-in rhythms to create
your own original rhythms (called “user rhythms”),
which you can save in a eighth group. For more
information, see the “Rhythm List” (page A-5).
