Selecting and Playing Styles - The Style Mode The Style mode provides dynamic rhythm/accompaniment patterns - as well as voice settings appropriate for each pattern - for various popular music styles. A total of 100 different styles are available, in several different categories. Each style is made up of separate "sections" - Intro, Main A and B (with 4 Fill-ins), and Ending - letting you call up different accompaniment patterns as you perform. The auto accompaniment features that are built into the rhythms add the excitement of instrumental backing to your performance, letting you control the accompaniment by the chords you play. Auto accompaniment effectively splits the keyboard into two sections: The upper is used for playing a melody line, and the lower (labeled "ACMP" below the keyboard) is for the auto accompaniment function. Selecting and Playing a Style Select the Style mode. Press the STYLE button. Style name and number 001 8BtPop TEMPO 116 Indicates Style mode is selected Select the desired style number.

You can use the numeric keypad to directly enter the style number, use the +/- keys to step up and down through the styles, or press the STYLE button to advance through the style numbers. 28
