Rhythm Section Basic Operation
The ES7’s Rhythm Section feature contains 100 built-in accompaniment styles, covering a wide range of musical
genres. Each style can be used simply as a drum or percussion track, or as a full musical accompaniment with bass,
guitar, organ, brass, etc. parts. In addition, each style includes separate introduction, fill-in, variation, and ending
passages, allowing musicians to enliven their performances at the touch of a button.
For a complete listing of the available Rhythm Section styles, please refer to page 125 of this owner’s manual.
