Retrigger And Type Parameters - Yamaha QS300 Owner's Manual

Retrigger and Type Parameters

These two parameter settings are recorded as part of the
Phrase data, and they determine how the Phrase re-
sponds to chord changes when used with the automatic
accompaniment.
Retrigger
Type
Retrigger (Rtg)
Settings: On, Off
When this is set to Off, any notes playing when a chord
change occurs will be immediately muted. When set to
On, notes playing when a chord change occurs will
continue playing for their specified length, re-harmo-
nized to match the new chord. [Retrigger is not avail-
able when Drums (Dr) is selected in the Type parameter
below.]
Type
Settings: Melody (Mel), Chord (Chd), Bass (Bas),
Drums (Dr)
This determines how the Phrase will be harmonized to
the specified chords: Mel produces harmonization
appropriate for melody or single-line Phrases, Chd
produces harmonization ideally suited to chords, Bas
produces bass-line type harmonization, and Dr produces
no harmonization to prevent the instruments in a drum
track from changing unexpectedly when a chord change
occurs.
