Title: Displaying chord names?
Post by: Cheshire Chris on August 23, 2021, 12:21:18 AM

I’m coming back to my Genos after a bit of an absence. In the past, I’m sure that when I played a chord, the Genos displayed the name of the chord somewhere on the screen, but now it no longer seems to do so. Is there a setting I need to change to allow it to do this? I don’t know if this is of any relevance, but I’ve just updated my firmware from 1.4 to 2.02, so perhaps something’s changed?

Any assistance with this would be much appreciated.

Thanks,

Chris

Hi Chris,

The Genos does display the chord in the Home screen but the ACMP button must be pressed first.

Thanks, Lee, that's what I was missing. I was playing without accompaniment 😁.

Appreciate the help!

Hi The chord name is also displayed if you just press the LH voice, without the accompaniment, this splits the keyboard. If you want 'say' piano all across the keyboard, make the LH voice = the RH voice, and adjust the octave to suit. This also suits just playing with a multipad accompaniment only  :D

Cheers Terry
