A Style consists of rhythm and accompaniment (chords, etc.) parts. The buttons for Style playback are
covered here.
To Start/Stop Playing
[START] button
Starts playback of the current Style. When the [ACMP] button is turned off, only
the rhythm part of the Style is played back. Pressing this button again stops
playback.
[ACMP] button
Turns the Auto Accompaniment on/off. If you turn on the [ACMP] button, both the
rhythm part and auto accompaniment can be played back according to the
detected chords during Style playback. The Pedalboard does not sound while
the [ACMP] button is on.
[SYNC START] button
This puts the Style playback in standby. The Style starts playing back when you
press any key on the keyboard (when the [ACMP] button is off) or you play a
chord in the chord section (when the [ACMP] button is on). While a Style is
playing back, pressing this button stops the Style and puts playback in standby.
[SYNC STOP] button
Make sure that the [ACMP] button is on, and then press the [SYNC STOP]
button and play the keyboard. You can start and stop the Style anytime you want
by simply playing or releasing the keys in the chord section.
INTRO [1] – [3] buttons
The instrument features three different Intro sections that let you add an
introduction at the beginning of Style playback. After pressing one of the INTRO
[1] – [3] buttons, start playback of the Style. When the Intro finishes playing,
Style playback automatically shifts to the Main section.
ENDING/rit. [1] – [3] buttons
The instrument features three different Ending sections to add an ending before
stopping Style playback. When you press one of the ENDING/rit. [1] – [3]
buttons while Style is playing back, the Style will automatically stop after the
ending is played. You can have the ending gradually slow down (ritardando) by
pressing the same ENDING/rit. button once again, while the ending is playing.
Operating Style Playback
NOTE
When the Chord Fingering type
(page 49) is set to “AI Full
Keyboard,” Sync Stop is
disabled.
NOTE
The INTRO [1] section consists
of only the Rhythm part while
INTRO [2] and [3] consist of all
the parts as well as the
Rhythm part. When you play
INTRO [2] or [3], in order to
have the complete Intro section
sound properly, you need to
play chords in the chord
section with the [ACMP] button
turned on.
NOTE
If you press the ENDING/rit. [1]
button when the Style is
playing, a fill-in automatically
plays before the ENDING/rit.
