Drum Drum track. This type of track is not transposed
by the arranger, and is used for Drum Kits made
of Drum sounds. It can be affected by the Drum
Mapping of the Style Play mode (see "Drum
Mapping (Var.1...Var.4)" on page 93).
Perc Percussion track. This type of track cannot be
transposed, and is used for Drum Kit made of
Percussion sounds. It is NOT affected by the
Drum Mapping.

root when changing chord.
Acc Accompaniment track. This type of track can be
used freely, for melodic or harmonic accompani-
ment patterns.
Trigger Mode
This setting lets you define how Bass and Acc-type tracks are
retriggered when the chord is changed.
Off Each time you play a new chord, current notes
will be stopped. The track will remain silent until
a new note will be encountered in the pattern.
Rt (Retrigger) The sound will be stopped, and new
notes matching the recognized chord will be
played back.
Rp (Repitch) New notes matching the recognized
chord will be played back, by repitching notes
already playing. There will be no break in the
sound. This is very useful on Guitar and Bass
tracks.
Tension
Tension adds notes (a 9th, 11th and/or 13th) that have actually
been played to the accompaniment, even if they haven't been
written in the Style pattern. This parameter specifies whether or
not the Tension included in the recognized chord will be added
to the Acc-type tracks.
On The Tension will be added.
Off No Tension will be added.
