Fill A/Fill B
Press the 'Fill' button (A or B) to add a fill to the accompaniment rhythm of your song. The
fill played is determined by the accompaniment rhythm selected.
After the fill, the selected accompaniment rhythm will continue playing. The Fill In function
can be used as often as desired.
Fade-in/fade-out
Press the ‘Fade-in/fade-out’ button before or during a selected rhythm to gently fade in or
out of the selected accompaniment.
Accomp volume
The volume of the accompaniment rhythm can be adjusted independently from the master
volume. This means that the accompaniment rhythm can blend into the background more
so that your playing can be heard more clearly, for instance.
The accompaniment rhythm volume can be set anywhere between 0 and 32 using the '+
and -' buttons. The value will be shown on the display.

button will let you hear the recording.

the display.
To save presets, hold the 'Memory' button and press M1, M2, M3 or M4. Bear in mind that
the preset will be stored in whatever bank you are currently in!
The number of the selected ‘M’ button will then be displayed followed by the message
'MEM STOR' that confirms the preset has been saved. Presets include the selected

you're using. Any existing presets in the same slot on the same bank will be overwritten by
the new preset.
