16. Accompanying Rhythms („STYLE")
a) Selecting Accompanying Rhythm, Starting/Terminating Playback
The keyboard has a total of 100 different accompanying rhythms.
The accompanying rhythm selected by you can be played in the
background.
In the Annex, you will find a table with all accompanying
rhythms.
To select an accompanying rhythm ("STYLE"), proceed as follows:
• Press the "STYLE" button (11).
• Use the buttons "+" and "-" or the numeric buttons (19) to select
the accompanying rhythm (e.g. enter "47" with the numeric but-
tons).
• Press the "START/STOP" (3) button to start or stop playback of the
accompanying rhythm.
b) Normal/Variation Mode, Button "SYNC/FILL"
Every accompanying rhythm has two different variations ("A" and
"b"). Normally, version "A" (normal mode) is designed more simply
(e.g. little drums used) and version "b" (variation mode) is more ex-
tensive (e.g. more and different use of drums).
• Start playback of the accompanying rhythm, see chapter 15 a).
• Briefly press the button "SYNC/FILL" (4) to switch between normal
mode („A") and variation mode („b").
When switching between normal and variation mode, a
brief insertion rhythm is played, resulting in a clean and
soft transfer. No direct change is performed, because this
would make for a very unpleasant effect.
• Keeping the button "SYNC/FILL" (4) pressed continues to play
the insertion rhythm and only switches to the normal or variation
mode when the button is released.
c) Sync Start, Button "SYNC/FILL"
This function starts playback of the set accompanying rhythm only
when you start playing on the clavier (playback starts when the first
key on the clavier is pressed).
• Stop playback of the accompanying rhythm, see chapter 15 a).
• Press the "SYNC/FILL" button (4). The beat display flashes on the
LC display.
• The accompanying rhythm starts when the first key on the clavier
is pressed.
When the "A.B.C." function activated ("A.B.C." displayed at
the top left of the display), playback will only start when a
chord is selected in the left area of the clavier.
