There are four different ENDING patterns, that can be
selected using the VARIATION [1], [2], [3] and [4] but-
tons. Again, the VARIATION buttons determine the
complexity of the arrangement.
■
BASS INV
This button is used to switch the “Bass Inversion”
function on or off. While the button is
dark , the
rhythm’s bass part always plays the fundamental of
your notes or chords. Example: if you play a chord
consisting of the notes C, E and G (which is recog-
nized as a C major chord), the bass part plays a C.
If the [BASS INV] button lights , the rhythm’s bass
part uses the lowest notes of the chords you play.
Example: if you play a chord consisting of the notes
E, G and C (still a C major chord), the bass part plays
an E. This function therefore gives you more artistic
licence.
■
AUTO FILL IN
When this button lights, the BK-5 plays a transition
before switching to the newly selected VARIATION
pattern. Example: if the VARIATION [1] pattern is run-
ning, pressing the [4] button will not switch to that
pattern right away—the BK-5 first plays a fill-in to
announce the new song section.
NOTE
The duration of the fill-ins (transitions) can be halved if you
like. See “Fill In Half Bar” on p. 63. You can also speed up or
slow down playback during a fill-in. See “Fill Ritardando”
on p. 63.

By pressing and holding one of these buttons, you activate
the lock function for rhythm selection, which means that
rhythms no longer change when you select Performance

The display shows a list of the rhythms that belong to
this family. If the currently selected rhythms belongs
to the family whose button you pressed, its name is
displayed in reverse and the indicator of the button
you pressed lights:
If you press a different RHYTHM FAMILY button, the
display shows the beginning of the associated list
(but the indicator of the associated family button
doesn’t light):

the desired rhythm, then press [ENTER/
SELECT] to confirm your selection.
