If FNGR is set to “ON”, a bass note can be entered by
pressing a key for a bass note on the left part of the micro key-
board or an external keyboard while holding the chord. (The “left
part” range for entering a bass note can be specified in the Utility
mode on page 252.)
● Syncopated Chords
Chords can be syncopated (i.e. the chord actually begins an
eighth or sixteenth note before the beat on which it is entered) by
using the [OCT UP] button (note the “” marking above the but-
ton). Enter the chord, then press the [OCT UP] button once for
eigth-note syncopation, or twice for sixteenth-note syncopation
(the appropriate syncopation symbol will appear below the chord
name).
Example: D chord syncopated (8th note)
■
NOTE
• You can add bass notes to existing chords without having to re-enter the
entire chord by simply moving the cursor to the chord and using the
[OCT DOWN/BASS] button to specify the bass note. A bass note can be
removed from a chord by placing the cursor at the chord and re-entering
the chord.
