Balancing the Style accompaniment tracks with the Mixer
When playing with Styles, you can adjust the volume of one
section with respect to the others using the [MIXER] Volu-
me controls. You will be able to balance all the Style sections;
Drums, Bass, Accomp as well as the Lower and Upper
keyboard sections. How the MIXER controls are organized is
explained on page 6.
In Style mode, to increase the volume of the Bass track, for
example, press the top [INCREASE VOLUME] button and
hold it down until you reach the Volume required.
The display shows the Volume level of the section being
controlled, in this case the Bass section.
To decrease the volume, press the bottom [DECREASE VO-
LUME] control.
MUTE TRACKS
Muting the Style tracks
If you want to exclude a section (mute, or turn off), simply
press both [INCREASE VOLUME] and [DECREASE VOLU-
ME] buttons at the same time to mute the section required.
For example, to play your Upper and Lower voices with the
BASS accompaniment only, mute the DRUMS and ACCOMP
tracks. The display will show OFF for the respective section.
To restore the volume to normal, press both the [INCREASE]
and [DECREASE VOLUME] buttons again at the same time.
Using the Single Touch Play settings in
Style mode
The SINGLE TOUCH PLAY settings are a quick and easy way
of reconfiguring the voices of the UPPER and LOWER sections
of a Style by pressing only one button while you are playing,
without having to stop to change voices manually.
When you play the Styles with the
[SINGLE TOUCH PLAY]
button on, each Style you select recalls a panel configuration
(voices and volume settings) for the accompaniment sec-
tions (Drums, Bass, Accomp) as well as for the Upper and
Lower sections.
The S.T. PLAY settings are recalled using the first four but-
tons of the MEMORY section [M1 - M4].
The
GK340 provides a total of 96 x 4 = 384 different panel
configurations for each Style.
