Select A Style - Yamaha PortaTone PSR-6000 Owner's Manual

MANUAL BASS
The Manual Bass mode provides an alternative
to the normal split keyboard. The bass voice as-
signed to the left-hand keyboard section is mono-
phonic, while a polyphonic ORCH. 1 voice is played
on the upper section of the keyboard. You can select
any of the PSR-6000's normal voices to play on the
lower section of the keyboard — of course, it's
normal to choose a bass voices for the left hand. No
automatic bass and chord accompaniment is pro-
duced, although the Interactive Accompaniment fea-
ture (page 27) does affect the rhythm sound.
NOTES
• Voices created using the PSR-6000 Custom Voice
feature (page 77) can also be selected for use with the
Manual Bass mode.
• The ABC mode cannot be changed when the sequencer
ACCOMP. track contains data.

Use the style group buttons to select the group

Although you can select the ORCH. 1 voice you
intend to play on the right-hand section of the

voices to be used for the accompaniment bass and
chords according the accompaniment style you se-
lect.
