Styles
The Chord Fingering type determines how chords are specified for Style Playback. You can select the desired type on
the display called up via [MENU] [Split & Fingering].
Changing the Chord Fingering Type
Single Finger Makes it simple to produce orchestrated accompaniment using major, seventh, minor and minor-
seventh chords by pressing only one, two or three keys on the Chord section of the keyboard.
Multi Finger Automatically detects Single Finger or Fingered chord fingerings, so you can use either type of fin-
gering without having to switch fingering types.
Fingered Lets you specify the chord by pressing the notes making up a chord in the left hand section of the
keyboard when ACMP is turned on or the Left part is turned on. For information on which notes to
press for each chord, refer to the Data List (Chord Types Recognized in the Fingered Mode) down-
loadable from Yamaha Manual Library, or use the Chord Tutor function as described in the next
section.
Fingered On Bass Accepts the same fingerings as Fingered; however, the lowest note played in the Chord section of
the keyboard is used as the bass note, allowing you to play inversions. (In the Fingered type, the
root of the chord is always used as the bass note.)
Full Keyboard Detects chords in the entire key range. Chords are detected in a way similar to Fingered, even if you
split the notes between your left and right hands—for example, playing a bass note with your left
hand and chord tones with your right hand, or by playing chord tones with your left hand and a mel-
ody with your right.
AI Fingered Basically the same as Fingered, with the exception that less than three notes can be played to indi-
cate the chords (based on the previously played chord, etc.).
AI Full Keyboard This type is similar to Full Keyboard, with the exception that less than three notes can be played to
indicate the chords (based on the previously played chord, etc.). Chords with tension notes cannot
be recognized.
• “AI” stands for “Artificial Intelligence.”
• When the chord detection area is set to “Upper,” only “Fingered*” is available. This type is basically same as “Fingered,” except that “1+5,” “1+8” and Chord Cancel are
not available.
