Intro/Ending

When one of the Intro/Ending buttons is pressed to start a Style the selected Intro pattern will be played before the
selected Variation pattern plays. There are both major and minor versions for each Intro (except Intro 3). The Auto-
accompaniment System will decide which Intro to use based upon the first Chord you play (major or minor). The
LCD screen will display a countdown in bars to show how many bars you have until the variation begins playing.
When one of these buttons is pressed while the Style is running the selected Ending pattern will be played before
the Style stops.
There are major and minor versions for each Ending (Except Ending 3).
Each Style four different Intros and Endings.
Intro/Ending 1 is the main Intro/Ending for the style.
Intro/Ending 2 is a shorter Intro/Ending.
Intro/Ending 3 is a special type of Intro/Ending. Unlike Intro/Ending 1 & 2 which have preset chord progressions
and melodies, Intro/Ending 3 has no preset chord progression. You can use Intro/Ending 3 to create your own chord
progressions to fit with any song you are playing. It responds to your chords in the same manner as the Fill-in and
Variation sections of the style.
Intro/Ending 4 is a simple Intro/Ending. The Intro is just a Count-in and the Ending is just one held chord.
