Hiya again. In the October/November edition of Yamaha Club Magazine I've been looking again at the Chord Looper feature - with two workshops on different ways of using it.
The first shows how, having recorded some 'tricky' chords for the middle section of the song at a slow tempo, the keyboard then takes over the playing of the chords (at the correct speed) during performance. This frees up your left hand to use the controls on the keyboard's panel (in this case the joystick). This video demonstrates the finished product.
The second workshop, played in a semi-theatre organ style, explains how you can use the Chord Looper to take over the triggering of the accompaniment chords whilst leaving your left hand free to play a countermelody part live on the keyboard. The simple melody/chord arrangement is published in the Easy Keyboard Library - Great Songwriters music book. The left hand countermelody part is published in the magazine. As before, the video shows the finished product.
The step-by-step guides to putting both these illustrations together is published in the October/November 2021 magazine - and free copies of the Chord Looper and registrations used are available to magazine subscribers.
Thanks for listening. All the best - Glyn :-)
