60 The simple answer: Three or more notes played simultaneously is a chor d. (Two notes played together is an “interval” — an inter val being the distance between two differ ent notes.
61 Knowing how to read and write chord names is an easy yet invaluable skill. Chords are often written in a kind of shorthand that makes them instantly recognizable (and gives you the free- dom to play them with the voicing or inversion that you prefer).
62 CH O R D GU I D E The Chor d Guide functions of the Por taT one provide power ful, easy-to-use tools for learning chords and chord relationships. Chord Guide features three dif fer ent types of operation: Dictionary , Smar t, and EZ Chord. • Pressing the CHORD GUIDE button automatically turns on the auto accompaniment.
63 3 Specify the type of the chord (major , minor , seventh, etc.). Press the key on the keyboard that corresponds to the desired chord type (as printed on the panel). 4 Play the chord. Play the chord (as indicated in the display) in the auto accompani- ment section of the keyboard.
64 Smart The Smart type allows you to set the basic key for the chord accompani- ment. Once this is set, you can simply press single keys in the scale and have har monically appr opriate chords played automatically . For example, with the key set to C, playing an D will result in an D minor chord (rather than a harmonically inappropriate D major).
65 For example, to play the following music score, select number 15 so that the key is set to b =1 (F , or Dm). 4 Play the accompaniment, and play single note chords (root notes) in the auto accompaniment section. Start accompaniment playback in the desired way .
66 EZ Chord The EZ Chord function is an exceptionally flexible and easy way to program semi-automatic backing for your performances. It lets you record all necessary chord changes for an entire song, .
67 3 Select the desired EZ Chord bank. Use the numeric keypad. Buttons 1 - 8 select EZ Chord banks #1 - #8, respectively . Button 9 selects the bank chain “A-1” bank (see box below). 4 Start the accompaniment. Use any one of the methods described on page 48 to start the ac- companiment.

69 3) Press the + button in the numeric keypad. This actually records the chord to the selected block and automati- cally moves to the next block. This step is necessary; the chord is not actually recorded until you press the + button. (Pressing the - button will select the previous block without recording the chord.
70 HINT — Using Spaces If your chord progressions are not long and the maximum memory space for chor ds isn’t ver y impor tant to you, you can use the spaces between recorded blocks to good advantage. (Keep in mind that spaces have no effect during playback; the EZ Chord function automatically skips the space or spaces and plays the next chord.
71 Clearing an EZ Chord Bank This operation lets you erase (clear) all recorded chords for the se- lected EZ Chord bank. 1 Enable the EZ Chord Record mode. Pr ess the RECORD button, r epeatedly if necessar y , until EZ Chord recording is selected. (“EZ” appears in the display and the “RECORD” indication flashes for a couple of seconds.
