Song Memory Function Track 1 Step Recording Variations The following describes a number of different variations you can use when recording to Track 1 using step recording. All of these variations are based upon the procedure described under "To record chords with step recording" on page E-53. J To start accompaniment with an intro pattern In step 4, press INTRO/ENDING 1 or INTRO/ENDING 2 button after the SYNCHRO/FILL-IN NEXT button. J To switch to a rhythm variation In step 5, press VARIATION/FILL-IN 1 or VARIATION/ FILL-IN 2 button immediately before inputting the chord. J To insert a fill in In step 5, press VARIATION/FILL-IN 1 or VARIATION/ FILL-IN 2 button at the measure or beat immediately before the chord or beat where you want to insert the fill in. J To insert an ending In step 5, press INTRO/ENDING 1 or INTRO/ENDING 2 button at the measure or beat immediately before the chord where you want to insert the ending. • The length of the ending depends on the rhythm you are using. Check the length of the pattern you are using and set the length of the chord accordingly in step 6. Making the chord too short in step 6 can result in the ending pattern being cut off. J To step record chords without rhythm Skip step 4. The specified chord of the length specified by the number buttons is recorded. A rest can be specified here, so an original chord pattern can be created. J To add chord accompaniment part way through rhythm play In place of step 4 at the start of the recording, press VARIATION/FILL-IN 1 or VARIATION/FILL-IN 2 button and input rests. Then in step 5, input the chords. Only rhythm is played where you input the rests, and then chord play starts after the rests.
