Playing using accompaniment as backing
Accompaniment is a function that automatically provides an accompaniment when you play a chord with your left hand after selecting your preferred accompaniment rhythm. The accompaniment consists of notes from musical instruments such as a bass or guitar and is played in the rhythm you selected. This allows you to play the keyboard to an ensemble backing as if you were performing in a band.
1.Tap
2.Select Rhythm.
For detailed information on the rhythm categories and sub-categories, and the names of the rhythms in each category, refer to the “Built-in Music Files” list provided with the musical instrument.
3.Using accompaniment
The accompaniment in your musical instrument consists of a rhythm part that uses drums and other percussion, and a chord part that uses various musical instruments based on your chords. When you use the accompaniment, you can play just the rhythm part, or both parts at the same time.
- To use the rhythm part only
Set ACCOMP Mode to “OFF”.
Press the START/STOP button on the musical instrument.
On some models, you can also start the rhythm by touching the following buttons:
- INTRO: Starts an intro-style rhythm.
- NORMAL/FILL-IN: Starts a normal rhythm pattern.
- VARIATION/FILL-IN: Starts a rhythm with a variable pattern.
Playing to an accompaniment
Pressing the START/STOP button on the musical instrument again stops the rhythm.
- To use a chord-based accompaniment
Set ACCOMP Mode to “ON”.
Press the START/STOP button on the musical instrument.
On some models, you can also start the rhythm by touching the following buttons:
- INTRO: Starts an intro-style rhythm.
- NORMAL/FILL-IN: Starts a normal rhythm pattern.
- VARIATION/FILL-IN: Starts a rhythm with a variable pattern.
Play a chord on the chord input keyboard.
When you enter the chord, the rhythm and chord parts of the accompaniment both start playing.
Refer to Selecting the chord input method for more information on entering chords.
Play the melody with your right hand while playing various chords with your left.
Pressing the START/STOP button on the musical instrument again stops the rhythm.
- In the procedure above, you enter the chords used by the accompaniment yourself. By using the Music Preset function, you can have an accompaniment consisting of chord progressions based on the genre of the song you are playing without having to enter chords.
Selecting the chord input method
1.Tap
2.Select Chord Input Mode.
Casio Chord: This allows you to play four chord types (major, minor, seventh and minor seventh) at the touch of a finger.
Fingered1: Allows you to play the component notes of the chord on the keyboard.
Fingered2: Unlike Fingered1, you cannot enter a 6th. You can enter m7 or m7b5.
Fingered On Bass: This differs from Fingered1 in that you can enter a fraction chord where the sound of the lowest key on the keyboard is the base note.
Fingered Assist: This is unlike Fingered1 in that you press 2 or 3 keys on the keyboard. Pressing the root key and the white key to the left of the root key gives you the 7th chord, while pressing the black key to the left of the root key is the minor chord, and pressing both produces the minor 7th chord.
Full Range Chord: This enables you to enter the chord using all the keys and play the melody.
For more information on the types of chord that you can specify in each mode, refer to the User’s Guide and List of Chords provided with the musical instrument.
Using Music Preset
Music Preset is a set-up collection that includes chord progression files. It allows you to choose from 310 sets of accompaniment chord progressions and setting data, including tones and rhythms for specific music genres and concepts, and recall the selected set at the touch of a button.
1.Tap
2.Set Music Preset to “ON”.
3.Select Music Preset Type.
Refer to the “Built-in Music Files” list provided with the musical instrument for the list of music preset categories and types.
4.Change the chord progression key as required.
The music preset key can be changed through a range from -5 to 0 to +6. Tap the “+” or “-” button to set the key.
Pressing the “reset” button restores the default setting.
5.Adjust the volume as required.
Tap the “+” or “-” button to specify the setting.
Pressing the “reset” button restores the default setting.
6.Play the song along to the music preset.
The procedure for playing a music preset is the same as for an accompaniment.
Using automatic arpeggio phrases (Arpeggiator)
Using the Arpeggiator enables you to automatically play an arpeggio or any of a range of phrases simply by pressing a key on the keyboard. You can choose from a large array of arpeggio types, including those that play an arpeggio based on a played chord and those that automatically play various phrases.
- The Auto Harmonize and Arpeggiator functions share a single button. When the Arpeggiator function is enabled, you cannot use the Auto Harmonize function.
1.Tap
2.Set Arpeggiator/Auto Harmonize to “Arpeggiator”.
3.Select Arpeggiator Type.
For details of the list of types, refer to the “Built-in Music Files” list provided with the musical instrument.
4.If necessary, set Arpeggiator Hold to “ON”.
Selecting “ON” allows the arpeggio to continue playing even after you have stopped playing the chord and lifted your fingers off the keyboard.
5.Select Arpeggiator Part.
You can specify whether the Arpeggiator plays both the Upper1 and Upper2 parts during layering or just the Upper1 part.
Upper1&2: Plays both parts.
Upper1: Plays only the Upper1 part.
Applying chords to melody notes (Auto Harmonize)
Adding chords to the notes of the melody played by your right hand adds depth and texture to the melody. You can choose from 12 types of chord addition.
- The Auto Harmonize and Arpeggiator functions share a single button. When the Auto Harmonize function is enabled, you cannot use the Arpeggiator function.
