F7 Pian. Sustain: activates or otherwise the Sustain function in the Pianist mode, so you can use the Sustain pedal to deactivate the
chord acknowledgement and to freely play, right after having set the chord, along the complete keyboard..
F8 Retrigg. & Mode:
This associates parameters to the function buttons for the Retrigger part of the function and calls up a number of
parameters in the centre of the page for the Mode part. It also allows you to assign a different Style Setting to the
Style in use.
F1 Style Setting: displays the Style Setting assigned to the Style in use. To modify the assigned Style Setting, use the VALUE +/- push
buttons. Confirm the operation using the SAVE/ENTER button. From the SAVE/ENTER page confirm the Style and the
Style Setting modification pressing F2 Styles. Enter the Style name to which the new Style Setting has been
assigned and press F10 Exec to confirm. If you wish to call up a different Style to which a new Style Setting is to be
associated, go back to the main page of the display, select the Style pressing the STYLES buttons and the function
buttons, return to the main page and go to the F4 Arrange Mode menu using the above procedure.
Retrigger: The Retrigger function is activated by default on the bass track of the Style, thus allowing you to repeat the funda-
mental note every time a chord is changed. If the retrigger is activated also for the accompaniment tracks, these
repeat the chord programmed on the first step of the first Style measure. The following parameters are available:
Mode: The Mode function defines the harmonic behaviour of the accompaniment tracks (Chord 1, 2, 3, 4, 5) to be chosen
between Close, the mode using chords with close inversions, and Parallel, the mode moving the chords without alter-
ing the intervals it is made up of. Generally speaking the Close option is the most musical and natural one. If you wish
to modify the Mode parameter, select the Style track pressing the CURSOR +/- buttons and modify the parameter
pressing F10 Select. To go back to the second page of the Arrange Mode, press F5 Escape.
F9 Dyn. Arranger:
Fingered 1 acknowledges the chord only according to the notes actually played in the very moment, so that
even chords made up of two notes are acknowledged if one single note is released after playing a three notes
chord, with the other two notes still pressed down, even with HOLD activated.
Fingered 2 is similar to Fingered 1, but keeps all the notes of the chord played in memory. If in a chord of
three notes only one is released, the chord will remain still the original one.
Easy 1 performs a chord with a minimum of notes. If for example you play only the keynote, you obtain a
major chord; adding the third minor you create a minor chord, playing the seventh with the keynote you
obtain a seventh chord.
Easy 2 is similar to Easy 1 but acknowledges also chords to which further notes are added in addition to the
original ones, avoiding that you need to replay the hole chord again.
F1 Style Set: indicates the Style Set currently in use.
F2 Bass: this is activated by default and is disabled by pressing the F2 push button again;
F3 Chord 1: pressing the relevant push button activates the Retrigger function for the Chord 1 track;
F4 Chord 2: pressing the relevant push button activates the Retrigger function for the Chord 2 track;
F6 Chord 3: pressing the relevant push button activates the Retrigger function for the Chord 3 track;
F7 Chord 4: pressing the relevant push button activates the Retrigger function for the Chord 4 track;
F8 Chord 5: pressing the relevant push button activates the Retrigger function for the Chord 5 track.
