Auto Bass Chord (ABC)
Full-keyboard ABC
When this advanced auto-accompaniment mode is engaged the
Clavinova will automatically create appropriate accompaniment while
you play just about anything, anywhere on the keyboard: chords, a
bass line, arpeggiated chords, a melody line. The name of the detected
chord will appear on the display. You don’t have to worry about speci-
fying the accompaniment chords. Although Full-keyboard ABC is
designed to work with many songs, some arrangements may not be
suitable for use with this feature. Try playing a few simple songs in
the Full-keyboard ABC mode to get a feel for its capabilities.
Chord detection occurs at approxi-
mately 8th-note intervals. Extremely
short chords less than an 8th note
in length may therefore not be
detected.
The DUAL or SPLIT mode can be
used with ABC.
NStop the Accompaniment ........................................................................
Press the [START/STOP] or [ENDING] button to stop the accompa-
niment.
The [INTRO A/FILL TO A], [INTRO B/
FILL TO B], [MAIN A], [MAIN B], and
[ENDING] buttons can be used in the
ABC mode to create pattern variations
(refer to the Accompaniment section
on pages 30 and 32 for details).
