Start A Style With Key Start - GEM Powerstation SK760 Owner's Manual

START A STYLE WITH KEY START

The Key Start function synchronizes the start of
the automatic accompaniment with a note
pressed on the keyboard below the split point
without having to use START/STOP. KEY START
can be used in various situations. The most com-
mon use is as follows:
1. Make sure that ARRANGE MEMORY or LOWER
MEMORY are off.
Note: If ARRANGE MEMORY or LOWER
MEMORY are off, the accompaniment plays while
your notes are pressed on the keyboard and stops
instantly when the notes are released. If, instead,
one of these two functions are active, the accompa-
niment or the drum track only will continue playing
after releasing the keys .
2. When the Style is not playing, press KEY START.
The KEY START LED turns on.
3. Preselect the INTRO (or FILL or ENDING) to start
the Style with an Intro, and play a chord (at least
3 notes) with your left hand.
The accompaniment starts immediately
(eventually preceded by the introductory pat-
tern if selected). If you release the keys, the
accompaniment stops instantly.
4. Press the Arrange Memory button (LED on) and
play another chord with your left hand.
The accompaniment starts playing again. If
you release the keys, this time the arrange-
ment continues to play. The Arrange Memory
function memorises the last chord played.
5. Press START/STOP or ENDING to stop the accom-
paniment.
With Start/Stop, KEY START remains active.
With Ending, KEY START turns off.
If you use Start/Stop to stop the accompani-
ment, press KEY START to turn it off.
