Using the Chord Memory Function
Chord Memory is a function that allows you to play chords based on
pre-programmed
Chord Forms
, just by pressing a single key on the
keyboard. The JUNO-G can store 64 preset chord forms and 64 user
chord forms. If you wish, you can overwrite any of the 64 user
(factory set) chord forms.
The chord memory function operates on the arpeggio part in
Performance mode. If a rhythm set is selected for that part, you can
also use this to play rhythms.
When you use the Chord Memory function with a tone for
which the Mono/Poly Parameters (p. 37) is Mono, only one
sound in the chord is played. When using the Chord Memory
function to turn Poly the Mono/Poly Parameters.
