Auto Accompaniment
This keyboard automatically plays bass and chord parts in
accordance with the chords you finger. The bass and chord
parts are played using sounds and tones that are
automatically selected to select the rhythm you are using.
All of this means that you get full, realistic accompaniments
for the melody notes you play with your right hand, creating
the mood of an one-person ensemble.
Selecting a Rhythm
This keyboard provides you with 100 exciting rhythms that
you can select using the following procedure.
To select a rhythm
1
Find the rhythm you want to use in the RHYTHM
List and note its rhythm number.
Not all of the available rhythms are shown on the
rhythm list printed on the keyboard console. For a

you turn on keyboard power.
You can also increment the displayed rhythm number
by pressing [+] and decrement it by pressing [].
Accompaniment sounds (chords, bass, etc.) do not
sound while a metronome rhythm (No. 95 to 99: 0, 2, 3,
4, 6) is being used, even if the POWER/MODE switch
setting is CASIO CHORD or FINGERED. Because
of this, you should set the POWER/MODE switch to
NORMAL when using a metronome rhythm.
