your song after all.
Saving Style Party data (Save SP)
As stated earlier, you can also record your own
Style Party data and save them to disk. There are
two ways to record Style Party data:
(a) By using the Arranger and triggering it with the chords you
want to record.
That way, the Style Party sequence will play the
selected Music Style with the chord you recorded
(the "changes"). Be sure not to record the melody
because Style Party is even greater fun when you
play a live solo to a pre-recorded backing.
(b) By saving a Composer song with or without alterations
("edits").
In this case, you can either use a song you loaded
as is or change it using the Composer Menu func-
tions (see below), and then save it to disk.
