W (Wrap Around)
The wrap‐around point is the highest register limit for
the backing track. The accompaniment patterns will be
transposed according to the detected chord. If the
chord is too high, the Style tracks might play in a regis‐
ter that is too high, and therefore unnatural. If, how‐
ever, it reaches the wrap‐around point, it will be
automatically transposed an octave lower.
The wrap‐around point can be set for each track in
semitone steps up to a maximum of 12 semitones, rela‐
tive to the chord root. This value will be the interval
between the key specified by the Style Element and the
wrap‐around point.
1...12 Maximum transposition (in semitones) of
the track, referred to the original key of
the pattern.
KR (Keyboard Range)
This parameter is an on/off switch for the Key Range
parameter memorized into the Style.
Or(iginal) The Keyboard Range is used. When a
track goes over the lower or higher limit
set by this (hidden) parameter, it is trans‐
posed, to play into the programmed
range.
Off No Keyboard Range used.

PAGE 23 - PREFERENCES: LOCK
You can "lock" various functions, to avoid they can be
changed when selecting a different Performance, Style
or Single Touch Setting.
Hint: When turning the instrument on, Performance 1 is
automatically selected. Therefore, if you wish your parame‐
ters to stay unchanged, save your preferred default settings
into Performance 1 (see "The Write window" on page 42),
and turn these locks on.
Note: These settings are stored in the Global file. After
changing these settings, press WRITE to save them into the
Global. The Write Global window will appear (see "The
Write window" on page 125).
