In this mode the split point is de-activated and notes played anywhere on the keyboard are detected and used to determine the harmonization of the accompaniment. In the Conventional Full-keyboard ABC mode, chord detection is possible when at least three notes are played anywhere on the keyboard. The name of the detected chord will appear on the display. NOTES • 2-note fingerings are not recognized in the Conventional Full-keyboard ABC mode. • If more than 5 notes are played in the Conventional Full-keyboard ABC mode, the lowest 4 notes are used to specify the chord. • The (b5), 7(b5), M7(b5), and mM7(b5) chord types included in the list on the previous page are not recognized in the Conventional Full-keyboard ABC mode. • The Dual or SPLIT mode can be used with Full-keyboard ABC. • The Full-keyboard and Conventional Full-keyboard ABC modes will be disengaged and the Single/Fingered mode will be engaged if Solo Styleplay is turned on. • Solo Styleplay will automatically be turned off whenever the Full-keyboard or Conventional Full-keyboard ABC mode is engaged. • Press the [FULL KEYBOARD] button so that its indicator goes out when you want to exit from the Full-keyboard ABC mode. To exit from the Conventional Full-keyboard ABC mode press the [FULL KEYBOARD] or [SINGLE/FINGERED] button twice. The RHYTHM, CHORD 1, CHORD 2, and BASS volume controls can be used to adjust the volume of the corresponding accompaniment parts when using ABC. In general, CHORD 1 controls rhythmic chords while CHORD 2 controls more decorative chords (arpeggios, etc.). The volume of the keyboard can be independently controlled by using the BASS volume control while holding the [UTILITY] button. NOTES • Some styles may not use all four parts: RHYTHM, CHORD 1, CHORD 2, and BASS. s Changing the ABC Split Point SINGLE/ FINGERED A B C The ABC split point can be set at any key by pressing the desired key while holding the [SINGLE/FINGERED] button. The specified split point will appear on the display. The default split point - F#2 - will always be set automatically whenever the power is initially turned on. C3 NOTES • The split point is indicated by the keyboard guide lamp above the split point key. s Special Modes q Mute Some accompaniment notes may be automatically muted if they interfere musically with what is being played by the right hand. This mute function can be enabled or disabled via the "ABC Auto Mute" function described on page 64. The mute function is normally enabled (default). q Minor Harmonization When playing a 7th chord in a minor key, the ABC system will automatically shift a 9th note down to the octave, and a 6th note to the 5th when the "Minor Harmonization" function described on page 64 is turned on. The default setting for this function is off. NOTES • Minor Harmonization will not function in the Full Keyboard ABC mode.
