(4) Use FAMILY
[√][®]
to select the memory area that contains
the desired Music Style (see above).
The FAMILY buttons allow you to jump to the desired “fam-
ily” (which also include the Flash and
USER STL
areas).
The display now shows the name of the selected family.
(5) Use SELECT
[√][®]
to specify the desired Style within the
selected group.
The first press of SELECT
[®]
(or
[√]
) shows the name of the
first Music Style within the selected group. It is already
selected, so if you need the first Style, there is actually no
need to press SELECT
[®]
. You must use SELECT
[√]
or
[®]
,
however, to select another Style within the same group. You
can also use the numeric buttons to select Styles. See also
“Working with the FAMILY, SELECT and numeric buttons”
(p. 20).
After selecting memory 101 (Flash) or 201 (first disk mem-
ory), the display shows a flashing
Yes
message.
Note:
If you forgot to insert a floppy disk into the drive, the dis-
play shows “
No Disk
” when you attempt to select the “disk
family”.
(6) If necessary, confirm your selection by pressing the
[+/YES]
button.
The display briefly shows “
LOADING
” (only after selecting
a Style from the inserted floppy disk).
If you selected a Music Style on floppy disk, the
icon
now flashes, and the EXR-46 OR automatically selects the
USER STL
memory that now contains the Music Style
you loaded from floppy disk.
If you press
[+/YES]
during Arranger playback, the new Style
is used at the next downbeat (1st beat of the next measure).
Otherwise, the EXR-46 OR displays its name and uses that
Style when you press
[START÷STOP]
.
Note:
See page 50 for how to save the Music Style in the
USER STL
memory to the Flash memory.
Using the Band Orchestrator
function
The Band Orchestrator function allows you to vary the accom-
paniment patterns played by the Arranger. You can leave out
parts, thin out the drum part, etc. – in real-time (i.e. while you
are playing).
(1) Press the
[ARRANGER¥BAND]
button to select the Arranger
mode.
(2) Select the Music Style you wish to use for playing (or use
the one that is currently selected).
See page 16.

level of musical “complexity” (the corresponding icon is
