INTRO/END 1, 2, 3 (REMIX SELECT, DRUM MIXER, DRUM&BASS)

If one of these three push buttons is pressed while the Arranger is stopped an Intro is enabled, of which there are
three with varying complexity. If one of these three push buttons is pressed while the Arranger is playing, an Ending
is enabled with three available variations having different levels of complexity. If the Jump Fill push button is ena-
bled and an Intro push button is pressed, the Intro selected will be played. While in Song Play mode,  the three push-
buttons enable the Remix functions to be controlled on the piece of music being played.

ARR: MUTE

This is used to mute some sections of the automatic accompaniment, which can be defined by the user.  This func-
tion enables greater control on behalf of the user of the automatic accompaniment and offers additional musical
flexibility.
