SYNCHRONIZED START
Synchronized Start allows you to start the rhythm style by playing on the keyboard. Press the SYNC START
button, all four beat indicator dots above the
TEMPO
buttons will blink at the preset tempo for the current
style, showing that the synchronized start mode is on standby. The tempo can be adjusted while on standby,
using the
TEMPO +/- buttons.
You may add an introduction by pressing the INTRO/ENDING button after pressing the SYNC START button.
If any of the chord fingering modes is engaged, the complete auto-accompaniment will start as soon as a chord is
recognized. If the Auto-accompaniment function is disengaged, only the Drum part of the rhythm style will start
as soon as you play any key in the accompaniment section of the keyboard.
FILL-IN
Pressing the
FILL-IN
button will insert a short rhythmic pattern of one to two measures in length. Each style
has two different fill-in patterns, depending on the status of the VARIATION button. Holding down the
FILL-IN button will extend the fill indefinitely.
NOTE: The FILL-IN button can also be used in place of the INTRO/ENDING button to start playing with a
fill-in pattern instead of the introduction.
STOPPING
While a rhythm style is playing, press the START/STOP button to stop the accompaniment immediately,
or press the INTRO/ENDING button to finish with an ending pattern.
NOTE: If you want the selected rhythm style to continue after the ending pattern has been completed, press the
FILL IN button while the ending pattern is playing.

Auto Harmony
With the Harmony feature engaged, a single note on the right-hand section of the keyboard will sound with
additional auto harmony notes depending on the chords played in the accompaniment section of the keyboard.
The note played in the right-hand section of the keyboard determines the root key of the harmony. It is
recommended that only one note be played at a time. If more than one note is played only the highest note
will add harmony.
NOTE: Auto Harmony is only available when the auto-accompaniment is playing.
Press the HARMONY button to turn the feature on and off. There are four harmony types that can be selected,
duet, close harmony, open harmony, and octave. The harmony type selection is assigned in the Function menu.
Please see the Function section for more information.
