Pattern Variation (Sections) - Yamaha Portatone PSR-E313 YPT-310 Owner's Manual

Pattern Variation (Sections)

The instrument features a wide variety of Style "sections" (patterns) that allow you to
vary the arrangement of the accompaniment to match the Song you are playing.
● INTRO section
This is used for the beginning of the Song
When the intro finishes playing, accompaniment shifts to the main section.
The length of the intro (in measures) differs depending on the selected Style.
● MAIN section
This is used for playing the main part of the Song. It plays a main accompaniment pattern, and repeats
indefinitely until another section's button is pressed. There are two variations on the basic pattern (A and
B), and the Style playback sound changes harmonically based on the chords you play with your left hand.
● Fill-in section
This is automatically added before changing the section A and B.
● ENDING section
This is used for the ending of the Song. When the ending is finished, the auto accompaniment stops
automatically. The length of the ending (in measures) differs depending on the selected Style.
