2. Use the TONE/ONE TOUCH [1]- [8] buttons to
select the desired One Touch memory (1-8).
The number of the One Touch memory you select
will be displayed behind the "OT" message in the
upper left corner of the display. You may want to try
out several possibilities.
3. Select another Music Style (see page 15) or call up
the currently selected Style one more time.
Only now will the selected One Touch memory be
loaded.
4. To leave the One Touch mode, press the [GROUP/
ONE TOUCH] button again.
You now return to the last Tone you selected.
Melody Intelligence (INTEL)
The Melody Intelligence function adds a second voice
(harmony notes) to the melodies you play with your
right hand. In fact, it uses both halves of the keyboard
to determine which notes to play:
It looks at the melody notes in the right half; and...
It analyzes the chords you play in the left half to see
which notes it must add to your melody.
Repeatedly press the [INTEL/LAYER] button until
the Melody Intelligence icon (MEI" +4) appears in
the display (by "icon" we mean the notes).

Note: The [INTELL/LAYER] button also allows you to set
the Layer function (see page 20), which is not what we
need here. So be sure to select the Melody Intelligence icon.
'To get a clear understanding of how this function
works, here is a simple example (the function itself is
far more powerful, of course):
Press the [SYNC START] button (no box around the
SYNC START message).
* Stop Arranger playback by pressing the
[START/STOP] button.
Play the following notes and notice how the automatic
harmony notes change:

Of course, this function also works while the Arranger
is running. That is actually when it is most useful. It is
also available in Organ mode (see page 25).
The Melody Intelligence notes are played using the
EM-50/30's Upper2 part. If you like, you can assign
another Tone to this part (sec page 25).
Metronome and Tempo
Before playing a song with Arranger backing, you may
want to practise the melody to work on your timing
without "distraction" from the Arranger. That is what
the metronome is for.
1. Press the [METRONOME] button. The corre-
sponding icon appears in the upper line of display
and the metronome starts counting.
TEMPO
"tam

Otee
As you see, the currently selected tempo value is dis-
played, while the dots below the tempo value indicate
the current beat. The initial tempo value and time sig-
nature of the metronome depend on the currently
selected Music Style (or Song).
The dots below the tempo value indicate the current
beat. The first dot signals the downbeat (first beat, or
"1"), while the other dots indicate the remaining beats
(25 "3°, 4"). If the currently selected Music Style is
in "3/4", only the first three dots light. If the Style uses
a "6/8" time signature, the fourth dot lights three
times ("47,5 "6").
