The Custom Accompaniment Programmer If you want to create a totally new rhythm track, press the RHYTHM track button while holding the [DELETE] button. This cancels all the instruments in the original rhythm track, leaving only a metronome sound (the metronome sound will not be heard while the rhythm is playing). The rhythm pattern can be up to 8 measures long (see "1. CUSTOM ACCOMP. Measure/Beat" on page 19), and the pattern will continue to repeat so you can add new instruments during each repeat, if necessary.

While holding the CANCEL key (the highest key on the PSR-5700 keyboard), press the percussion key corresponding to the instrument you want to cancel. The selected instrument should now be cleared from the pattern. If you can't cancel an instrument even after following the above procedure, switch to VOICE SELECT number 8 or 9 and try again. HINT To Add Accents To accent specific beats after recording the rhythm, press the accent key (the second to highest key on the keyboard, with the ">" symbol) at the timing of beats you want to accent. B Program the Bass and Chord Parts After the RHYTHM track has been programmed (or it can be left as it is if no changes are required), you can select a bass or chord track for programming by pressing the BASS or a CHORD track button while holding the [RECORD] button (tracks containing preset data cannot be selected for recording). The RHYTHM track will automatically switch to the PLAY mode when a new REC track is specified. Please remember that only one track can be programmed at a time.
