ORCH PLUS & GENIE
What It Does:
The Orch Plus (Orchestration Plus) and Genie features
provide the fully-orchestrated accompaniment (a complete
band or orchestra) for the styles. These two buttons allow
you to choose how much of the band or orchestra you hear
along with the bass and drum portions of a style.
How It Works:
Pressing any of the blue style buttons causes the Genie and Orch Plus features to turn on along
with Auto Bass, MCS, Memory, and Start Stop; lighting the buttons. Pressing a lower keyboard
key at this point will play the fully orchestrated version of a style.
GENIE
The Genie is a simpler, rhythmic accompaniment, containing a minimal
number of instruments. To hear the Genie portion of a style try this:
1.
Press the Reset button.
2.
Press the blue Country style button.
3.
Play a key on the lower keyboard. The Country style will begin to
play. Listen to the music!
4.
While the style is playing press the Orch Plus button, turning it off and leaving the Genie
button on. Did you hear the style change? Genie adds this type of simpler
accompaniment to each Rhythm Plus Orchestration style.
5.
Press the Country button. The style and rhythm features will turn off.
Sometimes it sounds good to add variety to your music by briefly turning the Orch Plus feature
off while you continue playing.
ORCH PLUS
The Orch Plus is the “icing on the cake”, containing a fancier instrumental
