Interactive Accompaniment

Press the [INTERACTIVE ACCOMPANIMENT] button so that its indi-
cator lights to activate the Interactive Accompaniment mode. In this mode
the PSR-5700 uses advanced technology to monitor the way you are playing
A
on the keyboard and automatically varies the rhythm or ABC accompani-
ment accordingly.
If you are playing with the VERSE 1 variation, for example, and you
begin to build up the musical excitement on the keyboard (i.e. play more
notes, faster, and/or harder) the PSR-5700 will automatically switch to the
VERSE 2 variation to better support what you are playing. On the other
hand, if you play more mellow right-hand lines the PSR-5700 will auto-
matically "shift down" to the VERSE 1 variation. The same applies to the
CHORUS 1 and CHORUS 2 variations.
The "sensitivity" of the Interactive Accompaniment mode can be adjusted via
the INTERACTIVE ACCOMPANIMENT Sensitivity function described on page
40 of the Advanced Features manual. Also note that automatic switching be-
DETAIL
tween VERSE 1 and VERSE 2 or CHORUS 1 and CHORUS 2 will not occur if
INTERACTIVE ACCOMPANIMENT Mode 1 is selected — see page 40 of the
Advanced Features manual.
When the AUTO SOLO function is turned ON (ON is the default setting
— see page 40 of the Advanced Features manual), the SOLO accompani-
ment variations will automatically be activated if nothing is played on the
keyboard for a few measures. Further, the solo variations will automatically
be de-activated from the end of the current phrase after keyboard perform-
ance is resumed.
