Pressing the [SYNC START] button alone causes a straight start to occur
when the first note or chord is played. Press the [SYNC START] button and
then the appropriate [INTRO] and [MAIN/AUTO FILL] buttons for a
synchronized introduction start. The BEAT indicator will flash at the current
tempo when a synchronized start mode has been selected. The synchro start
mode can be disengaged prior to actually starting the accompaniment by
pressing the [SYNC START] button a second time.
Auto Accompaniment
• When the AUTO ACCOM-
PANIMENT split point and
SPLIT VOICE split point are
set at different keys, the L
voice can be played be-
tween the AUTO ACCOM-
PANIMENT split point and
SPLIT VOICE split point
when the AUTO ACCOM-
PANIMENT function is on.
• When the AUTO ACCOM-
PANIMENT split point and
SPLIT VOICE split point are
set to the same key, the L
voice can be played any-
where to the left of the
AUTO ACCOMPANIMENT
split point and SPLIT
VOICE split point while
AUTO ACCOMPANIMENT
is not playing.

The Beat Indicator
The four dots of the BEAT indicator provide a visual indication of the selected
tempo as shown below.
• The PSR-530 has several
fingering modes which al-
low you to play chords in
different ways. See “The
Auto Accompaniment Fin-
gering Modes” on page 30
for details.

As soon as you play any chord that the PSR-530 can “recognize” on the left-
hand section of the keyboard, the PSR-530 will automatically begin to play the
chord along with the selected rhythm and an appropriate bass line. The name of
the current chord will appear on the display. The accompaniment will continue
playing even if you release the keys (unless the Synchro Stop function is engaged
— page 26).

Select the MAIN A and B Sections as Required
The MAIN A and MAIN B sections can be selected at any time during playback
by pressing the corresponding button. Whenever you press the MAIN/AUTO
FILL [A] or [B] button during playback, the PSR-530 will generate an appropriate
“fill-in” (one of four types: AA, AB, BA, and BB) which will smoothly connect
the current section to the selected section — even if it is the same section. For
example, if you press the MAIN/AUTO FILL [A] button while the MAIN A
section is playing, a fill-in will be produced, then the MAIN A section will
continue playing. When you select a different section, the fill-in will begin
immediately and the new section will actually begin playing from the top of the
next measure unless the MAIN/AUTO FILL [A] or [B] button is pressed during

• The MAIN A section is auto-

ever the PSR-530 power is
initially turned on.
• The indicator of the destina-
tion section (MAIN A or B)
will flash while the corre-
sponding fill-in is playing.
During this time you can
change the destination sec-
tion by pressing the appro-
priate MAIN/AUTO FILL [A]
or [B] button.
