Quick Start
Changing the Style of a Preset Song
You may want to try changing the Style of a Preset Song. The JS-5 has 200
types of Preset (built-in) Style. Let’s try choosing and play a variety of Styles.
The 200 Preset Styles are classified by
category
, such as rock or jazz.
When you change the Style, the song plays in a manner that matches the
chosen Style, even when the chord progression set for the Preset Song
remains the same.

About Styles
Music includes songs in a
wide variety categories
(musical styles), such as
rock and jazz. Songs in the
same category use more or
less the same performance
patterns (phrasing) and
instruments, or the tempo
and the like are more or
less the same, and this
makes it possible to
recognize the category’s
distinctive ambience.
The JS-5 has built-in Preset
Styles that group together
the accompaniment
performance patterns,
instruments (parts), and
tempos for each category,
so you can easily create
songs with distinctive
ambience using these
Styles.
