Style Types (Characteristics)
The particular type of Style is indicated at the upper left of the Style name in the Style Selection display. The defining
characteristics of these Styles and their performance advantages are described below.
• Pro: These Styles provide professional and exciting arrangements combined with perfect playability. The resulting
accompaniment exactly follows the chords of the player. As a result, your chord changes and colorful harmonies
are instantly transformed into lifelike musical accompaniment.
•
Session:
These Styles provide even greater realism and authentic backing by mixing in original chord types and
changes, as well as special riffs with chord changes, with the Main sections. These have been programmed to add
“spice” and a professional touch to your performances of certain songs and in certain genres. Keep in mind, how-
ever, that the Styles may not necessarily be appropriate—or even harmonically correct—for all songs and for all
chord playing. In some cases for example, playing a simple major triad for a country song may result in a “jazzy”
seventh chord, or playing an on-bass chord may result in inappropriate or unexpected accompaniment.
• Free Play: These Styles are characterized by rubato performance. You can perform freely with remarkably expres-
sive accompaniment, without being constrained by a strict tempo.
• +Audio: Indicates the Audio Style. For more information on Audio Styles, refer to the Owner’s Manual.
