Turn the dial to select the chord type.
You can choose from the following chord types.
The following screen shows an example of when the chord
type has been changed to minor (m). With these settings,
chord data of "A minor" has been input at the beginning of
the rhythm song.
If you select "--" (no conversion) as the chord type, only the
bass will be transposed, and the phrase will not be
converted. Select this when you want the original phrase to
be played without change.

Move to the location at which you want to input the
next chord data, and input chord data in the same
way as described in steps 2 5.
Chord data does not necessarily have to be input at the
same location as the rhythm pattern data. You can also
change the chord in the middle of a rhythm pattern, or in
the middle of a measure. The input location can be changed
in the following ways.

the preceding or following measure.

of the preceding or following quarter note.
(3) Specify the location in 16th note units

Q
] key to make the display
read "EV", and turn the dial to move forward or
backward in 12-tick (16th note) units.
When you use methods (1) or (2), a " " symbol will be
displayed to the left of "CHORD" or "ROOT" at locations
where no chord data has been input. This indicates that the
preceding chord data will remain in effect.
When you use method (3), the symbol displayed at the
right of "EV" will indicate the type of data that is input
at the current location. For example, "Pt" indicates rhythm
pattern data, and "TS" indicates time signature data. (For
details refer to the table on p.63.)

Chord data that you input can be edited in the following
ways.

(chord root) or "CHORD" (chord type), and turn the dial to
change the chord.
To delete chord data

the cursor [

or "CHORD," and press the [ERASE] key. The chord data
