There are two types of accompaniment for the bass:
- Bass to Lowest ON: the bass plays mostly the lowest note or, in musical terms, the inversion of the
recognized chord. For example, when the musician plays a C major chord by pressing the keys, from bass
to treble, C, E and G, the bass plays C. When the keys E, G, C, are pressed instead, the bass plays E.
Pressing G, C, E, the bass plays G.

recognized as C major, the bass plays mostly the note C.
