NOTE
• The fingering that appears on the display is one standard fin-
gering. You can also use other fingerings to match the size of
your hands or to make it easier to progress from or to neigh-
boring chords.
• You can also use the [+] and [–] buttons to change the dis-
played chord name.
• The tone used to sound chords you play on the accompani-
ment keyboard while using the Chord Book is the same tone
used by the accompaniment part of the rhythm that was se-
lected before you entered the Chord Book mode. Depending
on the rhythm that was selected, some of the notes that make
up a chord may be omitted when you play the chord on the
accompaniment keyboard in the Chord Book Mode. This is due
to the internal chord conversion function, arrangements, and
polyphony limitations. Because of this, you should always play
the chords indicated on the display on the melody keyboard
(the range that does not have chord names printed above the
keys).
