Style (Auto Accompaniment) Functions User Style This instrument features 11 internal Style categories, but it also allows you to import additional Styles (only those with an ".sty" extension) that you've downloaded from the Internet or gotten from other sources, and load them into a User Style and use them in the same way as the internal Styles. For details on loading a Style file, see "Loading Registration Files, Style Files, Song Files or MDB Files" on page 87. In order to load a Style file it is necessary to first either transfer the Style file to the instrument from a computer, or connect a USB flash memory containing the Style file to the USB TO DEVICE connector. Refer to "Transferring Data Between the Computer and Instrument" on page 96 for details on the file transfer procedure. If you are using a USB flash memory device, refer to "Loading Registration Files, Style Files, Song Files or MDB Files" on page 87. You can directly play the User Style in the USB memory without loading (page 89). Playing Styles Using the Entire Keyboard In "Playing Along with a Style" on page 23 we described two methods of playing Styles (Multi, Full Keyboard) in which chords were either detected only to the left of the keyboard Split Point or over the entire keyboard. By making the settings described below, chord detection for Style accompaniment occurs over the entire range of the keyboard, allowing for even more dynamic Style performance. In this mode only chords played in the normal way (page 25) can be detected. 1 Press the [ACMP] button for longer than a second. 2 Use the dial to select 2 "FullKeyboard".
