Selecting and playing Styles
The Pads
The Pads
Each Style or SongBook Entry can assign different sounds or patterns to the four PADS. These sounds
or patterns can be played along with the Keyboard and Style tracks.
1
If you want to see which sounds or patterns are associated to the four Pads for the cur-
rent Style, touch the Pad tab to see the Pad panel.
Hint:
You can open the
Pad Select window to assign
a different sound or pattern
to the Pads, by pressing SHIFT
+ one of the PADs.
2
Press one of the four PADS to play the corresponding Pad.
3
If the selected PAD triggers an endless pattern (i.e. a guitar arpeggio), press the same
PAD button again to stop it.
4
Select a different Style, and see how the sounds or patterns assigned to the PADS
change.
5
Press more PAD buttons at once, to play two or more sounds or patterns at the same
time.
6
Press STOP to stop all the Pads at the same time.
Adjusting the balance between the Style and the keyboard
Balancing between the Keyboard and Style tracks may be useful, to gently fade them and adjust their
respective volume.
•
While the Style is playing, use the BALANCE knob to balance between the Keyboard
(KBD) and Style’s Accompaniment (ACC) volume.
This knob also balances between the Keyboard and the Pad tracks. Also, it balances between the
Keyboard and the Song tracks (in Song Play mode).
