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] key 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.
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
keyboard 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 227.)
● 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] key (note the “ ” marking above the
key). Enter the chord, then press the [OCT UP] key 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)
