Style Play operating mode
Start-up settings
Re

The Style Play mode is the boot-up operating mode. When in
this mode, you can play with Styles (i.e. automatic accompani-
ments), while playing with one to four tracks (Upper 1-3 and
Lower) on the keyboard. You can select different Sounds and
Effects by selecting Performances and STSs. A different Voice
Processor Preset may be selected by a Performance or STS. You
can also use the SongBook to automatically select Styles for a
desired music genre.
Style Play mode can also be used in Easy Mode (see page 33).
Start-up settings
Since Performance 1 of bank 1 (Performance 1-1) is automati-
cally selected when turning the instrument on, you can save to it
your preferred start-up settings.
Select the Sounds, Effects, Voice Processor Preset, and other set-
tings you would like to see automatically selected when turning
the instrument on. Then select the “Write Performance” com-
mand from the page menu. When the Write Performance win-
dow appears, save the settings to Performance 1 of Bank 1. (See
“Write Performance dialog box” on page 138).
Note:
If you like some settings to be preserved even when choosing
different Performances, STSs and Styles, turn on the desired
“locks” to avoid changes to the selected parameters (see “General
Controls: Lock” on page 204). Save these locks to the Global (see
“Write Global - Global Setup dialog box” on page 220).
How Styles, Variations, Performances and
STSs are linked together
Styles, Variations, Performances and STSs are linked in many
ways.
• When the STS MODE LED is steadily on or blinking, selecting
a Style also changes Keyboard tracks (STS 1 is automatically
selected). Performance settings are overridden.
• When the STS MODE LED is blinking, selecting a Variation
also select the corresponding STS.
• When the STYLE CHANGE LED is on, selecting a Perfor-
mance also selects a Style (the one memorized with the Perfor-
mance).
• Current track settings can be saved either to a Performance, an
STS, or a Style Setup, depending on the page menu command
you select.
Master Volume and Balance
While the MASTER VOLUME slider controls the general vol-
ume of the instrument, you can use the BALANCE slider to bal-
ance the Style Accompaniment and Pad tracks against the
Keyboard tracks.
Note: As an alternative, the BALANCE slider can also work as a
volume control. See “Balance Slider” on page 206.
Factory, User and Favorite Styles
There are three different types of Style locations:
• Factory Style banks (from “Pop” to “Contemporary”, i.e.,
from BANK01.STY to BANK15.STY) are the preloaded
Styles, that you can’t usually edit (unless you don’t want to
do so, by turning the protection off, see “Factory Style and
Pad Protect” on page 237).
• Favorite Style banks (by default, from “Favorite 1” to
“Favorite 10”, i.e., from FAVORITE01.STY to
FAVORITE12.STY) are similar to User Styles, but you can
rename the tabs in the Style Select window to create places
for custom banks, or for additional music genres that are
not already included among the supplied banks. See “The
Favorite banks” on page 140 for information on how to
manage these Styles.
• User Style banks (from “User 1” to “User 3”, i.e., from
USER01.STY to USER03.STY) are Styles loaded from an
external device, created or edited by yourself (the User).
These are banks conceived as a ‘workbench’ – a place where
to manage Styles and banks before saving them to a final
location. See the “Style Record mode” chapter in the
Advanced Edit Manual for information on how to edit or
create Styles.
