Rules when recording non-rhythm channels
• Use only the CM7 scale tones when recording the BASS and PHRASE
channels (i.e., C, D, E, G, A, and B).
• Use only the chord tones when recording the CHORD and PAD chan-
nels (i.e., C, E, G, and B).
Using the data recorded here, the auto accompaniment (Style playback) is
appropriately converted depending on the chord changes you make dur-
ing your performance. The chord which forms the basis for this note con-
version is called the Source Chord, and is set by default to CM7 (as in the
example illustration above). You can change the Source Chord (its root and
type) from the PARAMETER display on page 121. Keep in mind that when
you change the Source Chord from the default CM7 to another chord, the
chord notes and recommended notes will also change. For details on
chord notes and recommended notes, see page 122.
