This section explains how to add chord information (root and
chord type) data to the rhythm song that you have created by
inputting rhythm pattern data. When playing a rhythm song for
which chord information was input, the bass sequence will
change according to the chord progression.
HINT
• If the original root of the rhythm pattern and the root specified for
the rhythm song are different, the bass sequence phrase will be
transposed according to the root input for the rhythm song.
• If the original chord type of the rhythm pattern and the chord
type specified for the rhythm song are different, the bass
sequence phrase will be converted according to the chord type
input for the rhythm song. (Depending on the phrase, there may
be no change.)
