Arrange Mode

The PS1000 allows you to choose between several different Chord recognition

modes: FINGERED 1, FINGERED 2, ONE FINGER and FREESTYLE.

Use the following procedure to select the desired chord recognition option:

1. Select the ARRANGE MODE menu function by holding down the Ar-

range On/Off button for an instant.

This will gain access to the ARRANGE MODE menu:

You can also select the menu by moving the left black arrowhead so that it

points to the function.

The display shows the current chord recognition mode in large letters.

2. Press the PAGE button repeatedly to scroll through the options until

you reach the chord recognition option required.

Fingered 1

At least three notes must be played below the split point for the chords to be

recognized and trigger the auto accompaniment.

Fingered 2

The chord will play according to the actual notes pressed below the split point.

A three note chord will trigger the full accompaniment. With one or two notes,

the chord will be recognized but the accompaniment pattern will limit itself ac-

cording to the notes actually played.

One finger

A single note played below the split point is recognized as the root of a major

chord.

• For a minor play the root and the minor third (e.g. C and Eb).

• For a diminished, play the root and the diminished fifth (C + Gb above or

below C).

• For a seventh play the root and the seventh (C + Bb above or below C).

• For a major 7th, play the root and the augmented seventh (C + B above or

below C).

FreeStyle

A three note chord is recognized anywhere on the keyboard, even above the

current split point. If you play one or two notes, the chord is not recognized and

the current accompaniment pattern does not change.

This chord recognition option allows you to play your melody anywhere along

the keyboard with the Upper 1 and /or Upper 2 keyboard sounds. Selecting

FreeStyle disables the Lower keyboard section, if active.

Note: Freestyle is particularly useful for Midi

Guitar controllers.
