If you use fingered chords and if you have APC memory ON and if you have left part hold OFF, you can use your left hand to embelish the rhythm. You can release the left hand chord and still have the rhythm parts continue in that chord while at the same time the left hand part stops sounding. So if you play the left hand in rhythm, you have a spontaneous rhythm part that you play yourself. If everything else is the same and you turn left part hold ON, the left part will continue to sound even after you release the left hand. (which don't seem to work well for me. . .) We all play our own way. If you use one finger chords or pianist mode, the left hold function doesn't make any difference because you don't have a left part.
