Dirk,

I agree with you: on the X1/SD1 the bassist feature (manual bass + auto accomp.) is available IF we use a basspedal. I learned how to play organ in one of the those old (?) Yamaha Electone organs with two keyboards and the pedal for the bass line. It was difficult to coordinate both hands plus the foot job at the begining.

But on the new XD series, the bassist feature is achieved WITHOUT the use of a pedal. You play your chord with your left hand and then are free to play individual notes that make the bass line. On the X series (and SD1 ?) this possibility is not there. Am I right?

Thanks for your explanation,

-- José.
