Accompaniment Accompaniment The Accompaniment function provides arpeggiated chords and other instrumental embellishments when rhythms are used. Accompaniment controls are selected from the Rhythm Menu and Rhythm Condition display. Main Drum and Add Drum contains drum and percussion rhythm patterns. When you turn both Main Drum and Add Drum off, the drum and percussion do not sound. Generally, Main Drum contains the main part of the rhythm and Add drum has additional percussion sounds, such as tambourine. 1 Press any one of the RHYTHM buttons once. 3 Adjust the volume and amount of reverb applied to the Accompaniment. Pressing the same rhythm button on the panel again 5 calls up the Rhythm Condition display. The two sliders at the right side of the display can control the Accompaniment volume and reverb. Touch the slider in the display or use the Data Control dial to adjust the volume/reverb. Rhythm/Keyboard Percussion Accompaniment parts At the bottom of the display, there are seven part buttons, such as Chord 1, Chord 2, Pad, and so on. These parts, with the exception of Main Drum and Add Drum, are Accompaniment parts. 2 Turn the desired parts on. The Accompaniment consists of five parts, Chord 1, Chord 2, Pad, Phrase 1, and Phrase 2, and each of them can be set to on or off by pressing corresponding button in the display. If you turn all the parts off, the Accompaniment does not sound. CHORD 1/CHORD 2: These are the rhythmic chord backing parts. PAD: This part features sustained chords and commonly uses lush sounds such as strings and organ. PHRASE 1/PHRASE 2: These parts are used for various embellishments and riffs that enhance the Song, such as brass section accents and chord arpeggios. Not all parts contain accompaniment data. Some parts may be empty depending on the selected rhythm and rhythm section. ELS-02/ELS-02C Owner's Manual 65
