Style (Auto Accompaniment) Functions

Various ways to start and stop Style playback

The following three methods can be used to start Style playback. In all
cases you will need to press the [ACMP ON/OFF] button to turn auto
accompaniment on before actually starting Style playback. Whichever
method you choose, you can press the [INTRO/ENDING/rit.] before
starting playback. To begin your performance, an introduction will play
automatically, then will automatically switch to the MAIN section when
finished.

Immediate Start

Press the [START/STOP] button to begin rhythm-only playback of the
selected Style.
The bass and chords will begin playing as soon as you play a chord in
the accompaniment range of the keyboard.

Chord Start

Press the [SYNC START] button and the beat arrows will begin flash-
ing, indicating that the Sync Start “standby” mode has been engaged.
The bass and chords will begin playing as soon as you play a chord in
the accompaniment range of the keyboard.

Tap Start

You can supply a count-in at any tempo you like to start playback. Sim-
ply tap the [TEMPO/TAP] button at any tempo—4 times for time signa-
tures in 4, and 3 times for time signatures in 3—and the selected Style
rhythm will begin playing at the tapped tempo.
The bass and chords will begin playing as soon as you play a chord in
the accompaniment range of the keyboard.
