Using The Auto-Accompaniment - Williams Piano Symphony User Manual

PIANO MODE
When the Piano chord fingering mode is engaged, you may enter chords anywhere on the keyboard. You are
not limited to the auto-accompaniment section. In this mode, there is no keyboard split point function for
chord recognition.
MANUAL BASS CHORD
When the Single or Fingered modes are engaged, you may play individual keys in the auto-accompaniment
section of the keyboard. The voice on this section of the keyboard will be a layered bass and chord voice
determined by the current style. This is a split voice mode, with the right hand playing the main voice.

Using the Auto-Accompaniment

Each rhythm style includes 6 patterns: an introduction, a main pattern and a variation pattern, two fill-ins
and an ending.
VARIATION
Press the VARIATION button to toggle between the main and variation patterns. The indicator will light up
when Variation is selected.
There are several ways to start the rhythm style:
STRAIGHT START
Pressing the START/STOP button immediately starts the Drum part of main or variation pattern, depending on
the status of the VARIATION button. If one of the chord fingering modes is engaged, the additional parts of the
auto-accompaniment will start as soon as a chord is recognized, according to the selected chord fingering mode.
STARTING WITH AN INTRODUCTION
All of the 100 styles can be started with an introduction pattern. Pressing the INTRO/ENDING button
immediately starts the Drum part of the introduction pattern, followed by either the main or variation
pattern, depending on the status of the VARIATION button. If one of the chord fingering modes is engaged,
the additional parts of the auto-accompaniment will start as soon as a chord is recognized, according to the
selected chord fingering mode.
