AUTO ACCOMPANIMENT

The PSR-200/PSR-300 includes a sophisticated Auto ac-

companiment system that can provide automated bass and

chordal backing in a number of ways.

The maximum number of notes that can be played simultaneously

on the PSR-200/PSR-300 keyboard is reduced when the Auto Ac-

companiment feature is used.

Single Finger Accompaniment

SINGLE FINGER accompaniment makes it simple to pro-

duce beautifully orchestrated accompaniment using major,

seventh‚ minor and minor-seventh chords by pressing a mini-

mum number of keys in the left-hand section of the keyboard.

The bass and chord accompaniment produced is perfectly

matched to the currently selected accompaniment style.

Press the [MODE] button as many times as necessary

until the SINGLE FINGER indicator lights — this selects

the SINGLE FINGER mode.

If necessary, set the split point as described below:

Setting the SINGLE FINGER Mode Split Point:

The split point for the SINGLE FINGER mode is initially

set at the D2 key. It can be set to any other key by press-

ing the desired split-point key while holding the [SPLIT

POINT CHANGE] button.

The split point is shown on the MULTI DISPLAY for

as long as the [SPLIT POINT CHANGE] button is held.

The D2 key, for example, would be displayed as “d 2”.

F#2 would be displayed as “F

2”. The sharp is indicated

by the lit bar between the “F” and the “2.”

The SINGLE FINGER mode split point is retained in

memory and will be recalled whenever the SINGLE FIN-

GER mode is selected. A method of initializing the SIN-

GLE FINGER mode split point to its original default

value is described on page 6.

Select the desired accompaniment style in the normal

way. Although you can select the melody (upper key-

board) voice you intend to use, the PSR-200/PSR-300

automatically determines the voices to be used for the

accompaniment part according the accompaniment style

you select.

Press the [START/STOP] button, [SYNCHRO START/

ENDING] button or the [INTRO/FILL IN] buttons to

determine how the accompaniment will be started (see

page 7). If you press the [START/STOP] button or the

[INTRO/FILL IN] button, the rhythm will begin playing

immediately without bass and chord accompaniment.

Press

any key to the left of the split point to start the auto-

matic accompaniment. If you press a “C” key, for exam-

ple, a C-major accompaniment will be played. Press an-

other key in the left-hand section of the keyboard to se-

lect a new chord. The key you press will always deter-

mine the “root” of the chord played (i.e. “C” for a C

chord).

Playing Minor, Seventh, and Minor-seventh

Chords in the Single-finger Mode

For a minor chord, press the root key and a black key

to its left.

For a seventh chord, press the root key and a white key

to its left.

For a minor-seventh chord, press the root key and both

a white and black key to its left.

The automatic accompaniment will continue playing even if you lift

your fingers from the Auto Accompaniment keys. You only need to

press the Auto Accompaniment keys when changing cords.

Press the [START/STOP] button or the [SYNCHRO

START/ENDING] button to stop the Accompaniment.
