Automatic accompaniment
1. Performing with automatic accompaniment
Automatic Accompaniment is a function that automatically adds an accompaniment
according to the chords that you specify. A variety of accompaniment styles are pro-
vided, including [PIANIST] (which mainly uses piano sounds suitable for a piano per-
formance), and styles such as pops, rock, jazz, and dance music. These
accompaniments are called “rhythm styles” (a total of 154 styles are provided), and are
organized into nine rhythm style groups.
A Rhythm Style consists of six musical tracks: Drum (a conventional drum set as used
in popular music), Perc (all percussion instruments other than drums), Bass (the low-
range instrument), and Acc1–3 (accompaniment instruments).
