Selecting Music Styles

So far, we have been using only one Music Style (the
one that is selected automatically at power-on). Here is
how to select a different accompaniment:
(1) Press a button of the STYLE pad to select a Music
Style family.
8 BEAT LIVE DISCO
ROCK
16 BEAT BAND DANCE
The indicator of that button lights and the display
looks as follows:
The display shows a list of 10 Music Styles available
for the family you selected. If the name of the desired
Style is not displayed...
(2) Use the [PAGE¥1]~[PAGE¥4] fields to switch pages.
The number of pages depends on the selected family.
Some families have only one page, while others may
have two, three or four.
(3) Press the field of the Music Style you want to use.
If the Arranger is running while you select another
Style, the new Style starts on the next downbeat.
(4) Press the [EXIT] button to return to the main page.

Changing the tempo

If the accompaniment is too fast (or too slow), here is
how to change the Music Style tempo:
√SLOW
(1) Press [ôSLOW] to decrease the tempo in steps of
one unit.
(2) Press [FAST¥®] to increase the tempo in steps of one
unit.
On most pages where the tempo is not already dis-
played, the following popup window appears to con-
firm the value you have set:
You can also press the [TAP] button several times to
specify the desired tempo. The new tempo is dis-
played in the upper right-hand corner of the display:
The [METRONOME] button flashes to indicate the
tempo (while Arranger playback is stopped). If
Arranger playback is running, the [START÷STOP] but-
ton flashes red on the first and green on the other
beats of a bar.
(3) To quickly return to the default tempo, hold down
[√¥SLOW] and simultaneously press [FAST¥®].
