You can also stop playback by pressing one of the ENDING [I] - [III] buttons at the "Ending" location on the notation (page 62). NOTE You can transpose the Style (accompaniment). See page 50. Style Characteristics The Style type and its defining characteristics are indicated on the Preset Style icon. • Pro These Styles provide professional and exciting arrangements combined with perfect playability. The resulting accompaniment exactly follows the chords of the player. As a result, your chord changes and harmonies/voicings are instantly transformed into lifelike musical accompaniment. • Session These Styles provide even greater realism and authentic backing by mixing in original chord types and changes, as well as special riffs with chord changes, with the Main sections. These have been programmed to add "spice" and a professional touch to your performances of certain songs and in certain genres. Keep in mind, however, that the Styles may not necessarily be appropriate - or even harmonically correct - for all songs and for all chord playing. In some cases for example, playing a simple major triad for a country song may result in a "jazzy" seventh chord, or playing an on-bass chord may result in inappropriate or unexpected accompaniment. • Pianist These special Styles provide piano-only accompaniment. Just by playing the proper chords with your left hand, you can automatically add complicated, professional-sounding arpeggios and bass/chord patterns. CVP-701 Owner's Manual 59
