Auto Accompaniment Section; Favorite Style Group - Samick SG 500 Owner's Manual

AUTO ACCOMPANIMENT SECTION

Your piano has an auto accompaniment function that may surprise you. A built-in computer will
allow you to play with a simple left hand chord or just a single note and your piano will play a
complete arrangement allowing you to play the melody and other materials with your right hand.
Once you understand how it works you can take full advantage of this extremely fun and satisfying
feature.
Your instrument has 350 accompaniment styles which can be used to provide fully-orchestrated
Auto Accompaniment patterns.
The styles are listed by Styles Families and divided in 10 different groups. In each group, you will
find a wide selection of styles that will offer you the best solution for every song you want to play.
There is a total of eleven style families including a programable "Favorites" location. These can be
selected by pressing the related button. These include Pop&Rock, Country, Standards, Latin 1,
Jazz&Blues and Favorites.
To select the other five style families- Ballads, Ballroom, Dance, Latin 2, and World, press the two
buttons graphically linked buttons underneath the family you want to use.
An example would be to press the Pop& Rock button together with the Country button to select the
"Ballads" Style Family. You will see the That family name appear in the display.
