Accompaniment) to record Style commands and chords played
on the keyboard.
While in Sequencer mode, press the RECORD button and select
the "Backing Sequence (Quick Record)" option. The Backing

Quantization is a way of correcting timing errors; notes played
too soon or too late are moved to the nearest axis of a rhythmic
"grid", set with this parameter, thus playing perfectly in time.
High No quantization applied.
