Change chords using the auto accompaniment feature.
Try playing a few successive chords with your left hand, and notice how the
bass and chord accompaniment change with each chord you play. (Refer to
page 40 for more information on how to use auto accompaniment.)

Stop the style.
You can do this in one of three ways:
■
Pressing the [START/STOP] button
The style stops playing immediately.
■
Using an Ending section
Press the [INTRO/ENDING/rit.] button. The style stops after the Ending
section is finished.
■
Pressing the [SYNC START] button
This immediately stops the style and automatically enables Sync Start, let-
ting you restart the style by simply playing a chord or key in the auto accom-
paniment area of the keyboard.
• The [ACMP ON/OFF] button can
also be used to turn off and on
the bass/chord accompaniment
while playing — allowing you to
create dynamic rhythmic breaks
in your performance.
• Chords played in the auto
accompaniment area of the key-
board are also detected and
played when the style is stopped.
In effect, this gives you a “split
keyboard,” with bass and chords
in the left hand and the normally
selected voice in the right.
ENDING
To have the Ending section gradually slow down (ritardando)
as it is playing, press the [INTRO/ENDING/rit.] button twice
quickly.
