selecting a Performance automatically selects the Style mem‐
orized into the Performance.
The SINGLE TOUCH and STS buttons are automatically
disabled, meaning that you can't change the Realtime (Key‐
board) tracks while in Chord/Acc Step Mode.
DELETE
When the Perf parameter is selected, and
the side arrow ( ) – showing that a Perfor‐
mance Change event has been selected at
the current position – appears next to it,
press DELETE to delete the Performance
Change at the current position.
Note: If the side arrow doesn't appear, the
event was not selected at the current position,
and will not be deleted.
SHIFT + DELETE
When the Perf parameter is selected, press
SHIFT + DELETE to delete all Perfor‐
mance Change events, starting from the
current position to the end of the Song. To
delete all Performance Change events in
the Song, go back to the M001.01.000 posi‐
tion, and press SHIFT + DELETE.
Note: All events on the very first tick
(M001.01.000), like Perf, Style, Tempo,
Chord, Style Element selection, cannot be
deleted.
SE (Style Element)
This is the Style Element (i.e., a Variation, Fill, Intro, or
Ending). The length of the selected Style Element is
always shown on the measure counter, at the top of the
display:
This will let you know where to place the following
Style Element Change. For example, if you inserted an
Intro event lasting for 4 measures, you can insert 4
empty measure after this event, and a Variation event
at the end of the Intro, beginning at the 4th empty mea‐
sure.
"Off" means that the accompaniment will not play at
the selected position – only the Realtime tracks will
play.
Hint: Insert a Style Element Off event exactly where the
auto‐accompaniment must stop, at the end of the Song.
Chord
Use the D VOLUME/VALUE buttons to select the
Chord line. Use the F‐1–F‐4 buttons to select the part of
the chord you wish to edit.
Name
Type
Tension
Extension
Backing Sequence operating mode
Use the TEMPO/VALUE controls to modify the
selected parameter. You can also play a chord, and it
will be automatically recognized. While recognizing a
chord, the status of the BASS INV. button will be con‐
sidered.
"No chord" means that the accompaniment will not
play at the current position (apart for the Drum and
Percussion tracks). To select the "No chord" option,
press F‐1 to select the Name part of the Chord, then use
the TEMPO/VALUE section to select the very last value
(C...B, Off).
Note: If you replace a chord with a different one, please
remember that the Lower track will not be automatically
changed.
Transport controls
While in Step Mode, you can use various control panel
buttons to accomplish the editing procedure.
<< or >> (Rewind or Fast Forward)
Use these buttons to move to the previous or following
measure. These commands are effective even if the
M(easure) parameter is not selected.
< or > (Previous or Next Step)
Use these button to go to the previous or next step (1/8,
or 192 ticks). If an event is located before the previous
or next step, the locator stops on that event. For exam‐
ple, if you are positioned on M001.01.000, and no event
exists before M001.01.192, the > button moves to the
M001.01.192 location. If an event exists on M001.01.010,
the > button stops to the M001.01.010 location.
These commands are effective even if the M(easure)
parameter is not selected.
+ < or > (Previous or Next Event)
Keep the SHIFT button pressed while pressing the < or
> button, to move to the previous or next recorded
event.
