• If you play any three adjacent

keys (including black keys), the

chord sound will be cancelled

and only the rhythm instruments

will continue playing (CHORD

CANCEL function).

• An octave (1+8) produces ac-

companiment based only on the

root.

• A perfect fifth (1+5) produces

accompaniment based only on

the root and fifth which can be

used with many major and minor

chords.

• The chord fingerings listed are all

in “root” position, but other inver-

sions can be used — with the

following exceptions:

* 6 chords are only recognized

in root position. All other inver-

sions are interpreted as m7.

* 6 9 chords are only recognized

in root position. All other inver-

sions are interpreted as m11.

* m6 chords are only recognized

in root position. All other inver-

sions are interpreted as m7

* 1+2+5 chords are only recog-

nized in root position. All other

inversions are interpreted as

sus4.

* With aug and dim7 chords the

lowest note played is assumed

to be the root.

* With 7

11 and 7

5 chords the

lowest note played is assumed

to be the root or
