Changing the Auto Accompaniment Mode
• Auto Accompaniment cannot be turned off
while the Chord Sequence function is active.
However, you can select from among the Multi

companiment modes from the pop-up display
by pressing the [ACMP ON] button. The split
point can also be changed.
When Chord Sequence cannot be turned on...
• The chord sequence function cannot be used
when no disk has been inserted in the disk
drive.
• The Chord Sequence data will automatically
replace any previous data in the Auto Accom-
paniment and rhythm tracks that was recorded
in the Quick Record or Track Record modes.
• Up to 999 measures can be recorded using the
Chord Sequence function.
• The chord input resolution will be automatically
selected according to the current style. For
styles of 2/4, 3/4, 4/4, 5/4, 6/8, 9/8 and 12/8
time signatures, one chord can be entered on
every 8th note or 8th-note triplet. For other
time signatures, one chord can be entered for
each measure.
Entering Accompaniment Style and Section
Changes
• One style change or section change (page
118) can be made at the beginning of each
measure (The Intro pattern can only be en-
tered at the beginning of a song.). However,
Auto Fill data can be entered anywhere you
desire.

Adjusting the Volume of Auto Accompani-
ment
• You can also enter volume changes for the
Auto Accompaniment. Used judiciously, these
can help you create professional-sounding
dynamic changes in the Auto Accompaniment
of your song. To do this, first enter the Auto
Accompaniment part volume data from the
MIXER display; the volume event symbol ( )
will appear in the box in the middle of the
display. To actually record the volume data at
the current position, press the SET button in the
CHORD SEQUENCE display. (An initial vol-
ume event is automatically entered at the
beginning of a song.)
