12. ACCOMP (AUTOMATIC ACCOMPANIMENT) - Each of the 100 rhythm
styles have an auto accompaniment pattern, often called the auto bass
chord. These accompaniments are dedicated to the selected rhythm
style, and will create fully orchestrated rhythm, bass and chord
accompaniments, based on the chord that you play with your left hand.
Note: The ACCOMP button activates the chord select screen.
With the accompaniment function engaged, the keys to the left side of
the split point act as the auto accompaniment piano keys, while the
keys to the right are available for normal playing. The auto
accompaniment fingering modes are single, fingered and piano.
Please see the Auto Accompaniment section of this manual for more
information
13. SYNC (SYNCHRONIZED START) - Synchronized Start mode engages
the auto accompaniment standby mode. This means that your
selected Auto Accompaniment pattern will begin when you press the
piano keys to the left of the split point.
Note: Press the SYNC button and the indicator lights beside the tempo
buttons will flash to the beat of the selected rhythm style. The rhythm
style will start as soon as you play in the auto accompaniment section
of the piano. The auto accompaniment will start with the first
recognized chord played in the auto accompaniment section of the
piano.
14. INTRO/END (INTRODUCTION/ENDING PATTERN) - All of the 100
rhythm styles can be started with their own introduction.
Function: When the Intro Button is engaged, the Introduction pattern
for the selected rhythm Style will start. This is followed by the main
pattern. Each style also has an ending pattern that can be accessed
by pressing this button while the rhythm/accompaniment pattern is
engaged.
Note: You can insert a fill-in during the ending pattern to stop the
ending and return to the main accompaniment pattern.
15. START/STOP - This button starts and stops the selected rhythm style,
the recording in the music recorder, Demonstration Song, Song on
Floppy Disk or other prerecorded items.
Press the Start / Stop Button to engage or terminate your selected
function.
