Pattern Sequencer

PITCH BEND
MODULATION
The Pattern Sequencer lets you modify the keyboard's 120 built-in
Auto Accompaniment patterns or create your own original pattern
from scratch.

Pattern Sequencer Basics

Each Auto Accompaniment pattern is actually a group of six differ-
ent elements named: normal, intro, variation, normal fill in, varia-
tion fill in, and ending. Each element is made up of five parts, named:
Rhythm, Bass, Chord 1, Chord 2, and Chord 3. The following table
shows the makeup of each element.
