Pianist A ccomp
P\1t."'\S11t.CCOtAP is a new \ea\me \{Om
'\ ecn-
nics which allows the piano player to use all the
accompaniment patterns, which are rearranged
from the original patterns and which are without
piano
accompaniment. This means that when you
use the PIANIST ACCOMP, mostly non-piano in-
struments are used in ACCOMP 1, 2 and 3 (ex-
cept for the ACCOMP 1 part of the SWING
rhythm). The idea is to be able to play the only
piano sound by yourself and still be able to have
a "band" assisting you which does not include
piano sounds. In this way your piano will give you
additional possibilities for accompaniment varia-
tion and more sound flexibility.
