Basic Procedure For Creating A Style - Yamaha PSR-A5000 Reference Manual

Basic Procedure for Creating a Style

1
Select the desired Style to be used as the basis for the new Style.
2
Call up the Style Creator display via [MENU]  [Style Creator].
3
On the "Basic" display, select the desired Section.
NOTE
You can also select the Section by pressing one of the corresponding STYLE CONTROL buttons on the panel.
As necessary, make the following settings.
• If you want to create a Style entirely from scratch, touch [Initialize Style] to make the current Style empty.
• If you initialize the Style, set the "Pattern Length" (measure amount of the Source Pattern). After inputting the
value, touch [Execute] to actually enter the changes.
NOTE
If an Audio Style is selected as starting data, changing the pattern length deletes the corresponding Audio part.
• Set the basic parameters such as "Tempo." The settings here commonly apply to all Sections except Section
Time Signature and Pattern Length, which can be set for each section.
• The time signature set in "Basic Time Signature" is applied to all Sections. You can also set a different time sig-
nature to each Section in "Section Time Signature." After setting time signatures, touch [Execute] to actually
enter the changes. A setting of "Basic Time Signature" is applied automatically to sections without settings in
"Section Time Signature."
NOTE
All existing recorded data are deleted when changing the time signature.
