■ To play Auto Accompaniment with chords
• Playing a chord with your left hand automatically adds bass
and harmony accompaniment parts to the currently
selected rhythm. It is just like having your own personal
back up group on call.

Use the 3 mode selector button to cycle
through settings until the "ACCOMP"
(ACCOMP Mode) indicator is lit.

■ Metronome Accompaniment Patterns

sounds only, without a bass or chord part. This is true even if
you finger a chord.

Auto Accompaniment Pattern Variations
Generally, the progress of a musical piece starts with an intro,
transitions to verses that are interspersed with interludes and
other changes, and then returns to the main theme before
reaching an ending. The Digital Piano's Auto Accompaniment
function provides a selection of accompaniment patterns that
are suited to the progress of a musical composition.
■ Normal and Variation
This is an accompaniment pattern that can be used in the
verse or chorus of a piece. A variation repeats anywhere from
one measure to multiple measures.
