You can use the procedures in this section to select the
rhythm you want, and then automatically play
accompaniments to suit it simply by playing chords with your
left hand. It’s like having a personal backup group along with
you wherever you go.
• Auto Accompaniments are made up of the parts
(instruments) below.
– Rhythm (percussion)
– Bass (bass instruments)
– Harmony (other instruments)
You can have only the rhythm part play, or you can have all
three parts play at the same time.
The rhythm part is the foundation of each Auto
Accompaniment. Your Digital Keyboard comes with a variety
of built-in rhythms, including 8-beat and waltz. Use the
