Mode 2: Chord 2 This is essentially the same as the Chord 1 mode, above, except that the
lowest note played in the Auto Accompaniment section of the keyboard will
be played by the bass part rather than the chord root.
Mode 3: Single
SINGLE mode fingering makes it simple to produce beautifully orches-
trated accompaniment using major, seventh, minor and minor-seventh
chords by pressing a minimum number of keys in the Auto Accompaniment
section of the keyboard. The accompaniment produced is perfectly matched
to the currently selected accompaniment style.
Major Chords:
If you press a C key in the left-hand section of the keyboard, for ex-
ample, a C-major accompaniment will be played. Press another key in the
left-hand section of the keyboard to select a new chord. The key you press
will always determine the root of the chord played (i.e. C for a C
chord).
Minor Chords:
Simultaneously press the root key and a black key to its left.
Seventh Chords:
Simultaneously press the root key and a white key to its left.
Minor-seventh Chords:
Simultaneously press the root key and both a white and black key to its
left.
NOTES
• The Auto Accompaniment will continue playing even if you lift your
fingers from the Auto Accompaniment keys. You only need to press
the Auto Accompaniment keys when changing chords.
Mode 4: Multi
This is a combination of the Single and Chord 1 modes. In this mode the
PSR-510 automatically discriminates between Single and Chord 1 mode
fingerings and generates the appropriate accompaniment.
NOTES
• If more than two keys are played and all but the highest key are black
keys, and the chord is not recognized by the Chord 1 mode, the high-
est note will be interpreted as the root of a minor (m) chord.
• If more than three keys are played and, excluding the highest key, are
a mixture of black and white keys, and the chord is not recognized by
the Chord 1 mode, the highest note will be interpreted as the root of a
minor-seventh (m7) chord.
• If more than two keys are played and all but the highest key are white
keys, and the chord is not recognized by the Chord 1 mode, the high-
est note will be interpreted as the root of a seventh (7) chord.
