Style Characteristics
The Style type and its defining characteristics are indicated on the Preset
Style icon.
• Pro: These Styles provide professional and exciting arrangements com-
bined with perfect playability. The resulting accompaniment exactly fol-
lows the chords of the player. As a result, your chord changes and colorful
harmonies are instantly transformed into lifelike musical accompaniment.
• Session: These Styles provide even greater realism and authentic backing
by mixing in original chord types and changes, as well as special riffs with
chord changes, with the Main sections. These have been programmed to
add "spice" and a professional touch to your performances of certain
songs and in certain genres. Keep in mind, however, that the Styles may
not necessarily be appropriate—or even harmonically correct-for all songs
and for all chord playing. In some cases for example, playing a simple
major triad for a country song may result in a "jazzy" seventh chord, or
playing an on-bass chord may result in inappropriate or unexpected
accompaniment.
Style file compatibility
The PSR-A2000 uses the SFF GE file format (page 9). The PSR-A2000 can
play back existing SFF files, but they will be saved in the SFF GE format
when the file is saved (or pasted) in the PSR-A2000. Please keep in mind
that the saved file can only be played back on instruments that are compati-
ble with the SFF GE format.
