Edit the selected accompaniment pattern instrument part as desired. • While performing the procedure below, you can press the L-17 (START/STOP) button and perform repeat playback of only the accompaniment pattern you are editing. Each press of the L-17 (START/STOP) button starts or stops playback. (1) While [RHYTHM] is displayed in line three of the rhythm editor screen, specify a number to assign a rhythm to the instrument part of the selected accompaniment pattern. Settings are configured using the same procedures as those for rhythm selection. Perform steps 1, 2, and 3 under "Playing an Auto Accompaniment" on page E-24. (2) Configure the mixer settings of the selected accompaniment pattern instrument part as desired. Press the C-5 (MIXER) button, use the R-17 (t, y) buttons to select one of the items described in the table below, and then use the dial or R-14 (-, +) buttons to change the setting. Display: Item name Description Setting Range TONE: Part Tone Specifies the instrument part tone setting. All tones (except user tones)*1 Part: Part On/Off*2 Specifies whether or not the instrument part should sound. on: Sounds the part. oFF: Mutes the part.

Drum set sounds cannot be selected for the bass and the Chord 1 through Chord 5 parts. *2 In addition to its "on" and "oFF" settings, "Part" also has a "Sol" (Solo) setting, which you can select by pressing the R-14 (-, +) buttons at the same time while "Part" is selected. While the "Sol" setting is selected, the Digital Keyboard will sound only notes of the part that is currently selected for editing. • Using the R-17 (u, i) to select a different instrument part will change "Part" from "Sol" back to "on" or "oFF". • Note that "Sol" is a special setting for previewing data while editing it, and it is not reflected when saving the user rhythm. *3 A smaller value shifts the pan position to the left while a larger value shifts to the right. A value of zero specifies center. (3) To exit the mixer, press the C-5 (MIXER) button or the R-15 (EXIT) button. • This returns to the [RHYTHM] screen displayed in step (1). • Performing rhythm assignment in step (1) above also will automatically change mixer settings to the initial defaults for the assigned rhythm. Because of this, changing the rhythm after configuring mixer settings in step (2) will cause the configured mixer settings to be replaced with the default settings of the newly selected rhythm. • When intro or ending is selected as the accompaniment pattern, the same rhythm is always assigned to all eight instrument parts. Because of this, performing rhythm assignment in step (1) for an intro or ending will change the rhythm of all instrument parts at one time. 6.
