Styles – Playing Rhythm and Accompaniment –

Changing Pattern Variation (Sections) During Style playback

Each Style features four different Main sections, four Fill-in sections and a Break section. By using these sections effec-

tively, you can easily make your performance sound more dynamic and professional. The section can be freely changed

while the Style is playing back.



MAIN VARIATION [A]–[D] buttons

Press one of the MAIN VARIATION [A]–[D] buttons to select the desired Main section

(the button lights in red). Each is an accompaniment pattern of a few measures or more and

it plays indefinitely. Pressing the selected MAIN VARIATION button again plays an

appropriate fill-in pattern to spice up the rhythm and break the repetition. After the fill-in

finishes playing, it leads smoothly into the Main section.



[BREAK] button

This lets you add dynamic breaks in the rhythm of the accompaniment. Press the [BREAK]

button during Style playback. When the one-measure Break pattern finishes playing, the

Style playback automatically shifts to the Main section.

Adjusting the Tempo



[TEMPO] button

By pressing the TEMPO [-] or [+] button, you can decrease/increase the tempo over a

range of 5–500. While the TEMPO pop-up is shown on the display, you can also use the

[DATA ENTRY] dial to adjust the value.

Pressing the TEMPO [-]/[+] buttons simultaneously resets the tempo to the default value

(programmed for each Style).



[TAP TEMPO] button

During Style playback, you can change the tempo by tapping the [TAP TEMPO] button

twice at the desired tempo.

When the Style is stopped, tapping the [TAP TEMPO] button (four times for a 4/4 time sig-

nature) starts Style playback at the tempo you tapped.

Fading In/Out



[FADE IN/OUT] button

This produces smooth fade-ins and fade-outs when starting/stopping playback. Press the

[FADE IN/OUT] button when playback is stopped and press the [START/STOP] button to

start playback with a fade in. To stop the playback with a fade out, press the [FADE IN/

OUT] button during playback.

AUTO FILL function

When the [AUTO FILL IN] button is turned on, pressing any of

the Main [A]–[D] buttons as you play automatically plays fill-in

section.
