performance
Rules when recording a Main or Fill-in
With the default initial settings, the Source Root/Chord is set to CM7. This means that you should record a Source
Pattern which is to be triggered by specifying CM7 during normal performance. Record a bass line, phrase or chord
backing which you want to hear when CM7 is specified. Specifically, see the rules below.
• Use only the CM7 scale tones when recording the Bass and Phrase channels (i.e., C, D, E, G, A, and B).
• Use only the chord tones when recording the Chord and Pad channels (i.e., C, E, G, and B).
If you observe these rules, Style playback notes are appropriately converted depending on the chord changes you
make during your performance.
Rules when recording an Intro or Ending
These Sections are designed assuming that the chord is not changed during playback. This is why you need not
observe the rules for Main and Fill-In Sections described above, and you can make the chord progression in
recording. However, follow the rules below since the Source Root/Chord is set to CM7 by default.
• When recording the Intro, make sure that the recorded phrase leads properly into a C scale.
• When recording the Ending, make sure that the recorded phrase begins with or properly follows a C scale.
Setting the Source Root/Chord if necessary
Although the default Source Root/Chord is set to CM7 as described above, you can change this to any desired one in
which you can play easily. Call up the “SFF Edit” display, set the Source Root and Chord to the favorite or desired
Root and Chord type. Keep in mind that when you change the Source Chord from the default CM7 to another
chord, the chord notes and recommended notes will also change. For details, refer to
