Starting the Accompaniment with an Introduction .............................................................................

Any of the PSR-510 accompaniment patterns can be started with an appro-

priate introduction by pressing the [INTRO] button and then the [START/
STOP] button.

Once the [INTRO] button is pressed, the [INTRO] indicator will be lit

continuously and the MAIN [A] or [B] indicator will flash to indicate which
section will play when the introduction has finished. You can change the “des-
tination” section by pressing the MAIN [A] or [B] button while its indicator is
flashing. When the introduction ends, the [INTRO] indicator will go out and
the [A] or [B] indicator will light continuously.

NOTES

• It is possible to start the accompaniment from any section — even the

ending — by pressing the corresponding button prior to pressing the
[START/STOP] button. The destination MAIN [A] or [B] section can be
selected as described above.

• The [INTRO] button can be used to select the introduction pattern even

while the accompaniment is playing.

• If you press the [SYNC-START/STOP] button and then the [INTRO] but-

ton, the accompaniment will start from the introduction as soon as a chord
is detected in the Auto Accompaniment section of the keyboard.

The MAIN [A] and [B] Sections ..............................................................................................................

Each accompaniment style has two main sections — [A] and [B]. If the

MAIN [A] or [B] button is pressed while the accompaniment is playing, the
corresponding section will begin from the top of the next measure. You can
also select [A] or [B] before starting the accompaniment.

NOTES

• The MAIN [A] section is automatically selected whenever the power

switch is turned on.

Adding Fill-ins .........................................................................................................................................

The PSR-510 provide two types of fill-ins (rhythmic variations) — one

which plays and then returns to the current MAIN section, and one which leads
to the other MAIN section. Press the [FILL IN 1] button at any time while the
accompaniment is playing to add a one-measure fill-in and or return to the cur-
rent MAIN section, or press the [FILL IN 2] button to add a one-measure fill-
in and go to the other MAIN section.

FILL IN 2

NOTES

• If you hold the [FILL IN 1] or [FILL IN 2] button, the fill-in pattern will re-

peat until the button is released, then the MAIN A or B section will play
from the beginning of the next measure.

• If the [FILL IN 1] or [FILL IN 2] button is pressed after the last beat of a

measure, the fill-in will begin from the first beat of the next measure. If
pressed at any other time the fill-in will begin immediately.

• It is also possible to start the accompaniment with a fill-in by pressing the

desired FILL IN button prior to pressing the [START/STOP] button. The
destination MAIN [A] or [B] section can be selected in the normal way.

If the MAIN A section is playing, for example, the [A] indica-

tor will flash while FILL IN 1 plays, and the [B] indicator will
flash while FILL IN 2 plays. You can change the section that will
begin playing after the fill-in by pressing the desired section but-
ton while the indicator is still flashing.
