According to its functions in a musical accompaniment, the kacapi is played as:
#Kacapi Indung (=mother kacapi) or ; and
#Kacapi Anak (=child kacapi) or Kacapi Rincik

The '''Kacapi indung''' leads the accompaniment by providing intros, bridges, and interludes, as well as determining the tempo. For this purpose, a large kacapi with 18 or 20 strings is used.

The '''Kacapi rincik''' enriches the accompaniment by filling in inter-note spaces with higher frequencies, especially in fixed metered songs as in the [[kacapi suling]] or [[Sekar Panambih]]. For this purpose, a smaller kacapi with ~15 strings is used.
