Styles 5•1
• 5 The Styles
You can enjoy playing the keyboard sounds in
real time while WK3 takes care of the accompa-
niment, as if you were playing with a band of mu-
sicians. The automatic arrangements are pro-
vided by the WK3 Styles.
This chapter describes the automatic arrange-
ments of the Styles, how to select them and how
to modify the Style Performance which governs
each Style.
ABOUT WK3 STYLES
Styles are a collection of musical patterns repre-
senting many types of music, ranging from rock
and pop to traditional and ethnic music.
Each Style has 4 Variations, 4 Intros, 4 Fill-ins
and 4 Endings.
A Style, therefore, provides a complete range of
musical structures with which you can create an
entire song.
Styles provide automatic arrangement patterns
triggered by chord information received from the
WK3 keyboard and the accompaniment patterns
change to suit the current chord.
Each Style consists of 8 tracks: 3 belonging to
the real time keyboard sections and 5 engaged
by the sequencer for the arrangement patterns.
The 5 arrangement tracks are divided into a
Drums track (drum sets widely used in all types
of music), a bass track and three accompaniment
tracks (Acc1, Acc2,
Acc3 - general accompani-
ment instruments).
WK3 contains 96 permanent Styles in memory
(flash-ROM) and 16 User-programmable Styles
in RAM. The Styles are contained in 14 Banks of
8 (12 Rom and 2 User).
The Style arrangement tracks have several items
that can be set, such as the Sound, volume, pan,
effects, tempo, muting, tuning, etc.
The arrange-
ment patterns are fixed for the ROM Styles while
for the Programmable Styles, they can be freely
modified.
Programmable Styles are discussed in a sepa-
rate chapter.
THE STYLE DISPLAY
The Style Display does not show any change with
respect to the default situation. When Styles are
disabled (Arrange On/Off is not selected - led of
f),
the top line shows “Arrange=Off”.
When the Styles are enabled (Arrange On/Off
selected - led on), the display shows a string of
asterisks until a note or chord is pressed on the
keyboard area dedicated to Style chords (below
the Split point).
All Style displays show the currently selected
Style Group directly under the Style name.
