one measure.

[To Variation] button (p. 77).

[To Original] button (p. 77).

then switches to the Variation

accompaniment pattern.

accompaniment to the start of the

Division.

What is the Leading Bass function?

The function that sounds the lowest note of a fingered chord

as the bass tone is called “Leading Bass.” When set to “ON,”

the bass tone changes when an inverted chord is used.

Usually the tonic of the fingered chord is sounded as the bass

tone.

→ If you’ve assigned “Leading Bass” to a pedal, the Leading Bass

function is active while you depress the pedal.

→ When the “Bend Up” or “Bend Down” function is used with

Split (p. 55) selected, the pitch of the sounds played in the

right hand are then altered. Additionally, the maximum degree

of change in the pitch when the Bender effect is used is called

the “Bend Range.” Take a look at “Changing the Bend Range”

(p. 152).

What’s the Bend Range?

The effect of smoothly raising or lowering the pitch of a

played note is known as the “Bender Effect,” and the pitch’s

range of change is called the “Bend Range.” With the KF-90,

you can apply the bender effect by depressing and releasing

a pedal.

* Pressing the One Touch Program [Piano] button returns the

pedals to their original functions (p. 16).
