Harmony Type

Description
Harmony types 0105 are pitch-based and add one-, two- or three-note harmonies to the single-note melody played in the right hand. These types sound when chords are played in the auto accompaniment range of the keyboard. These Harmony types will also work when playing songs that contain chord data.
Trill 1/6 note Trill 1/8 note
Trill 1/12 note Trill 1/16 note
Types 626 are rhythm-based effects and add embellishments or delayed repeats in time with the auto accompaniment. These types sound whether the auto accompaniment is on or not; however, the actual speed of the effect depends on the Tempo setting (page 46). The individual note values in each type let you synchronize the effect precisely to the rhythm. Triplet settings are also available: 1/6 = quarter-note triplets, 1/12 = eighth-note triplets, 1/24 = sixteenth-note triplets. The Trill effect Types (0612) create two-note trills (alternating notes) when two notes are held. The Tremolo effect Types (1319) repeat all held notes (up to four). The Echo effect Types (2026) create delayed repeats of each note played.
