CTAB Parameters

About the CTAB parameters
The CTAB parameters determine how the pitch of the recorded style changes in response to chords played in the
auto accompaniment section of the keyboard (when using auto accompaniment).
NOTE LIMIT .................. Note range (Low Limit, High Limit) setteings
Set the note range (low and high limits) for the voices recorded on user style tracks. By
setting the note range, you can prevent unrealistic notes (such as high notes from a bass or
low notes from a piccolo) from being produced and have them shifted to an octave within the
note range.
Example) When low limit is "C3" and high limit is "D4."
Root change
Notes played
HIGH KEY ..................... Highest Key setting
Set the highest key (upper limit of the octaves) of the note transposing for the Source Chord
Root setting. The notes designated higher than the highest key will actually be played back in
the octave just below the highest key.
Example) When highest key is "F".
Root change

SOURCE CHORD ......... Source Pattern Chord Root/Type setting
