Turning Each Channel of the Style or MIDI Song On/Off

You can add variations and change the feeling of a Style or a MIDI Song by selectively turning channels on/off.
Style Channels
Each Style contains the channels listed below.
• Rhythm 1/2: These are the basic parts of the Style, containing the drum and percussion rhythm patterns.
• Bass: The bass part uses various appropriate instrument sounds to match the Style.
• Chord 1/2: These comprise the rhythmic chord backing, commonly consisting of piano or guitar Voices.
• Pad: This part is used for sustained instruments such as strings, organ, choir, etc.
• Phrase 1/2: These parts are used for punchy brass stabs, arpeggiated chords, and other extras that make the accom-
paniment more interesting.
