Making a New Style
This is the most flexible way to create a new Style.
Y ou can make a completely new style from scratch or edit an existing style. First, read the explanation
below about the configuration of a style and understand how a style is made.
Configuration of a Style
A complete Style consists of the following patterns:
Basic pattern
4 patterns (Variation 1–4)
Max 16 measures
Fill-in
4 patterns (Fill-In 1–4)
1 or 2 measures
Intro Major
2 patterns
Max 16 measures
Intro Minor
2 patterns
Max 16 measures
Ending Major
2 patterns
Max 16 measures
Ending Minor
2 patterns
Max 16 measures
•
Each of these patterns in a Full Style is made up of six Sections—Drum, Bass, ACC1, ACC2,
ACC3 and ACC4. In an Intimate Style there are four Sections—Drum, Bass, ACC1, ACC2. In a
Solo Piano Style there are two Sections— ACC1, ACC2. You can use up to six sections in a User
Style but you don’t necessarily have to use all of the sections to create a Style. For example, just
like the Intimate and Solo Piano Styles you may not need to use some Variations or Sections to
accomplish your musical idea. These unused sections or variations may be left blank.
•
The different Sections can be of varying bar lengths as long as they stay within the limit. Having
them all the same length may make the Style easier to use in a song, but you may find that having
uneven bar lengths among the Sections can create interesting musical results.
•
For simplicity’s sake it is advisable to record your new style in the key of C.
To create a Style:
1)
Press the ADVANCED RECORDER button. The LCD scr
een will display the Advanced Recorder menu.
2)
In the Advanced Recorder menu, press the Style Maker button (R5). The LCD screen will display the
first Style Maker screen.
3)
To make a completely new Style, pr
ess the Make New Style button (L1) and use the Dial to select the
time signature for the style you are going to make. T
o edit an existing style, press the Edit Existing
Style button (L3) and use the Dial to select the style you want to edit.
