Standard Fingering
The standard fingering method uses standard formations of 3–4 notes, and lets the
experienced musician play a wider variety of accompaniment chords. You can play
these 15 chord types on your MD-1600, in any key, using the standard fingering
method.
Notes:
• To produce a simple variation of a 7, m7, M7, mM7, add9, or madd9 chord, you
can omit the finger positions shown in parentheses (on the keys).
• When producing an aug, 7-5, or dim7 chord, the lowest note you play determines
the root of the chord. Be sure your fingering correctly defines the root you want.
• The diagrams above show only one possible fingering position for each chord. It
is possible to play a chord using several different positions. For example, these
three fingering positions produce the same C chord.
