fingered with one or two keys.
See page A-6 for information about chords that are supported
and how they are fingered on the keyboard.
FINGERED 1
Play the component notes of the chord on the keyboard.
FINGERED 2
Unlike FINGERED 1, 6th input is not possible.
FINGERED 3
Unlike FINGERED 1, allows input of fraction chords with the
lowest keyboard note as the bass note.
CASIO CHORD
With CASIO CHORD, you can use simplified fingerings to
play the four types of chords described below.
When playing a minor, seventh, or minor seventh chord, it
makes no different whether the additional keys you press
are black or white.
FULL RANGE CHORD
With this mode, you can use the full range of the keyboard to
play chords and the melody.
See page A-6 for information about chords that are supported.
