Selecting a rhythm of a Style

sound consists of percussion instruments.

Select a Style.
Select the desired Style by using the number buttons [0]–[9], [+],
[-].
Refer to the Style List on page 76.
You can also select commercially available Style Files. To do this
load the Style Files from the computer to the instrument, and then
register the style data starting with to style number 107. (Refer to
the information on transferring data on page 67 and registering
styles on page 54.) You can play Style Files in the same way that
you play the internal styles. If the Style File has not been regis-
tered, "No Data" will be displayed when selecting style number

NOTE
• Since the Pianist category
Styles (098–106) have no
rhythm parts, no sound will
be produced if you start
rhythm-only playback. To
use these Styles, turn on
the auto accompaniment
and play the keyboard as
described on pages 21–22.
(The bass and chord
accompaniment parts will
sound.)
