- T - Posted July 3, 2016 Share Posted July 3, 2016 You can only play Major chords with a single finger. Minor chords require two fingers, 7th chords require three fingers, and Minor 7th chords require four fingers. To play a 7th chord, you play the root note plus the next two white keys above it. So C-7th would be C-D-E; F-7th would be F-G-A; C#-7th would be C#-D-E; F#-7th would be F#-G-A; Bb-7th would be Bb-B-C; etc. See the table in the section titled "CASIO Chord" in the right hand column of Page E-26 of the manual for complete instructions. You will also need to have the Fingering Mode set to CASIO Chord. See the section titled "To select a chord fingering mode" in the left hand column of Page E-26. If you are using fully formed chords, and you want to play an A-7th exactly as you have written it (A-C#-E-G), then you would need to raise the split point by at least one note. With the default split point, the G would fall into the "melody" (UPPER) section of the keyboard, and you would only get an A Chord, but it would be simpler to just invert the chord to G-A-C#-E. Now all chord notes fall below the split point and you get an A-7th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
