To Start/Stop Playing



[START/STOP] button

Style starts playing back as soon as the [START/STOP] button is pressed. To stop play-

back, press the button again.



[SYNC START] button

This puts the Style playback in “standby.” The Style starts playing back when you press

any note on the keyboard (when [ACMP] is off) or you play a chord with your left hand

(when [ACMP] is on). When you start the Style playback with the [SYNC START] button,

pressing this button again stops playback and puts the playback in “standby” again.



[SYNC STOP] button

You can start and stop the Style anytime you want by simply playing or releasing the keys

in the chord section of the keyboard. Make sure that the [ACMP] button is on, press the

[SYNC STOP] button, then play the keyboard.



INTRO [I]–[III] buttons

The Tyros4 features three different Intro sections to add an introduction before starting the

Style playback. After pressing one of the INTRO [I]–[III] buttons, start playback by using

the [START/STOP] button or [SYNC START] button. When the Intro finishes playing, the

Style playback automatically shifts to the Main section.



ENDING/rit. [I]–[III] buttons

The Tyros4 features three different Ending sections to add an ending before stopping Style

playback. When you press one of the Ending [I]–[III] buttons while Style is playing back,

the Style will automatically stop after the ending is played. You can have the ending gradu-

ally slow down (ritardando) by pressing the same ENDING button once again, while the

ending is playing.
