Each style of the AK280 has been set with a default or standard tempo.
However, this can be changed by using the [TEMPO +]/[TEMPO –] button.
1. Use the [TEMPO +]/[TEMPO –] button to change the tempo. While
the tempo value is ashing, use the data dial to quickly change the
tempo.
2. Press the [TEMPO +] and [TEMPO –] buttons simultaneously to
restore the default tempo setting.
Note:
When style stops, changing the style will automatically reset the tempo.
However, changing the style during style playback will not result in tempo
change.
Chord Inversion
This chord is dened by the fact that its root is not in the bass (i.e. is not
in the lowest note). When the root is in the bass, we call the chord “Root–
Position Chord”. If we put the Third and Fifth in the root position, then it
forms “Inversion”. We call this chord “Inversion Chord”.
See the major triad diagram and its inverted chord to the right.
Chord Name
The chord name contains two parts: Chord root and Chord type.
Single–Finger
Single nger type not only can detect single nger but also can detect
multi nger. The single nger makes it easier to play chords through
only one, two or three keys including major, minor, seventh, and minor
seventh chord. Refer to relevant picture on the right for details.
Multi–Finger
Multi–nger allows you to play chords in normal ngering. Try playing the
32 chord types in C scale as listed on the right.
Note:
In full range mode, the entire keyboard will only recognice chords played
in normal ngering.
Triad Type
There are the following basic triad types:
TEMPO
Major Triad
A root with a major third added above and a perfect fth
will consist as a “Major Triad”.

augmented fth will consist as an “Augmented Triad”.
