Step 3

The LCD indicator for each virtual button will turn on or off to indicate that the selected Key Recongition mode is
enabled.
Step 4

The LED indicator for the virtual button till turn on.
Step 6
Touch the STYLE LOCK button if you would like to turn it on or off accordingly.
Step 7
Press the ACC ON/OFF button to activate the Auto-accompaniment System (ACC).
The selected Key recognition mode will be displayed in the bottom left corner of the LCD screen, together with a
hand icon to indicate One Finger and Fingered/Full Keyboard modes.
Step 8
Press the START/STOP button to start the Style, and play some chords in the LEFT/SPLIT Part.
You will hear the Style start and also change keys and chord types as you play different chords.
Step 9
If you want to cancel or stop the Auto-accompaniment, press the ACC ON/OFF button again.
If you turn the ACC off without stopping the Style the drum rhythms will continue to play.
When you play along with the Auto-accompaniment using the Fingered or Full Keyboard modes, you may hear two sounds
playing the chords: one is selected by the front panel and the other is pre programmed for the Style. This is because the
sounds used by the Auto-accompaniment Style are independent of the Left and Right Part sound settings. Therefore
you will hear the instrument sounds played by your hand as well as those generated by the accompaniment.
In most cases, these are just duplicate notes being played using different sounds. In some cases however, you may hear
different notes or an unexpected chord inversion. If the overall musical effect is undesirable, try turning the LEFT/SPLIT
Part off and let the accompaniment play alone.
You can use the Auto-accompaniment (ACC) System without the Style running. In this way you can make use of the
chord recognition without having the pre programmed rhythms or patterns playing. Just turn the ACC on and play without
starting the Style. You will hear the bass and chord parts only. This may be useful when you play a musical piece that is
not played with drums. The accompaniment sounds are pre programmed to best suit the different Styles, and you cannot
alter them. When playing in One Finger mode, however, you can replace the chord sound with the sound chosen for the
LEFT/SPLIT Part. Assign your preferred sound and make the LEFT/SPLIT Part active.
You can also start a Style without the ACC on. In this way you can have just drums and percussion accompany you.
