Any of the PSR-410 accompaniment patterns can be started with an ap-
propriate introduction by pressing the [INTRO] button and then the
[START/STOP] button.
Once the [INTRO] button is pressed, the [INTRO] indicator will be lit
continuously and the MAIN [A] or [B] indicator will flash to indicate which
section will play when the introduction has finished. You can change the
"destination" section by pressing the MAIN [A] or [B] button while its indi-
cator is flashing. When the introduction ends, the [INTRO] indicator will
go out and the [A] or [B] indicator will light continuously.
Each accompaniment style has two main sections — [A] and [B]. If the
MAIN [A] or [B] button is pressed while the accompaniment is playing, the
corresponding section will begin from the top of the next measure. You can
also select [A] or [B] before starting the accompaniment.
The PSR-410 provide two types of fill-ins (rhythmic variations) — one
which plays and then returns to the current MAIN section, and one which
leads to the other MAIN section. Press the [FILL IN 1] button at any time
while the accompaniment is playing to add a one-measure fill-in and or
return to the current MAIN section, or press the [FILL IN 2] button to add
a one-measure fill-in and go to the other MAIN section.
If the MAIN A section is playing, for example, the [A] in-
dicator will flash while FILL IN 1 plays, and the [B] indicator
will flash while FILL IN 2 plays. You can change the section
that will begin playing after the fill-in by pressing the desired
section button while the indicator is still flashing.
