Adjusting The Tempo - Yamaha Tyros3 Owner's Manual

Changing Pattern Variation (Sections) During Style playback
Each Style features four different Main sections, four Fill-in sections and a Break section. By using these sections effec-
tively, 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 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 play-
ing, it leads smoothly into the Main section.
AUTO FILL function
When the [AUTO FILL IN] button is turned on, pressing any
of the Main [A]–[D] buttons as you play automatically plays
fill-in section.
● [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, the
Style playback automatically shifts to the Main section.

Adjusting the Tempo

● [TEMPO] button
By pressing the TEMPO [-] or [+] button, you can decrease/increase the tempo over a
range of 5–500. While the TEMPO pop-up is shown on the display, you can also use the
[DATA ENTRY] dial to adjust the value.
Pressing the TEMPO [-]/[+] buttons simultaneously resets the tempo to the default value
(programmed for each Style).
● [TAP TEMPO] button
During Style playback, you can change the tempo by tapping the [TAP TEMPO] button
twice at the desired tempo.
When the Style is stopped, tapping the [TAP TEMPO] button (four times for a 4/4 time
signature) starts Style playback at the tempo you tapped.
Fading In/Out
● [FADE IN/OUT] button
This produces smooth fade-ins and fade-outs when starting/stopping playback. Press the
[FADE IN/OUT] button when playback is stopped and press the [START/STOP] but-
ton to start playback with a fade in. To stop the playback with a fade out, press the
[FADE IN/OUT] button during playback.
