Changing pattern variations (Sections) during Style playback

Each Style features four different Main sections, four Fill-in sections and a Break section.

By using these sections effectively, you can easily make your performance sound more

dynamic and professional. The section can be freely changed while the Style is playing

back.

 MAIN VARIATION [A]–[D] buttons

Press one of the MAIN VARIATION [A]–[D] buttons to select the desired Main section

(the button lights in red). Each is an accompaniment pattern of a few measures or more and

it plays indefinitely. Pressing the selected MAIN VARIATION button again plays an

appropriate fill-in pattern to spice up the rhythm and break the repetition. After the fill-in

finishes playing, it leads smoothly into the Main section.

AUTO FILL IN function

When the [AUTO FILL IN] button is turned on, pressing any of the MAIN VARIATION

[A]–[D] buttons as you play automatically plays a fill-in section for a smooth, dynamic

transition into the next (or same) section.

Automatically changing One Touch Settings with the Main sections (OTS LINK)

The convenient OTS (One Touch Setting) Link function lets you automatically have One

Touch Settings change when you select a different Main section (A–D). The Main sections

A, B, C and D correspond to One Touch Settings 1, 2, 3 and 4 respectively. To use the OTS

Link function, turn the [OTS LINK] button on.

NOTE

You can change the timing in which the One Touch Settings change with the MAIN VARIATION [A]–[D] changes. To do this, call up the display via [MENU]  [Style Set-

ting]  [Setting], then set the OTS Link Timing parameter. For details, refer to the Reference Manual on the website (page 10)

 [BREAK] button

This lets you add dynamic breaks in the rhythm of the accompaniment. Press the [BREAK]

button during Style playback. When the one-measure Break pattern finishes playing, Style

playback automatically shifts to the Main section.

Press the selected

Main section (lit in

red) again.

The fill-in of the

selected Main sec-

tion plays (flashes in
