Creating/Editing Styles (Style Creator)
The Style Creator function lets you create your original Style by recording the rhythm pattern via the keyboard
performance and using the already-recorded Style data. Basically, select a preset Style that is closest to the type you want
to create, then record the rhythm pattern, bass line, chord backing, or phrase (referred to as “Source Pattern” in the Style
Creator) for each channel of each Section. Like the Song, two Recording methods are available: Realtime Recording and
Step Recording (
).
Style Data Structure – Consisting of Source Patterns
A Style is made up of the different Sections (Intro, Main, Ending, etc.) and each Section has eight separate channels, each
of which is referred to as “Source Pattern.” With the Style Creator feature, you can create a Style by separately recording
the Source Pattern for each channel, or by importing pattern data from other existing Styles.
Basic Procedure for creating a Style
The detailed instructions are described on the reference page of each step.
1
Select the desired Style as starting data.
2
Call up the Style Creator display via [Menu] → [StyleCreator].

On the “Basic” display, select a Section (
).
As necessary, make the following settings.
• If you create a Style entirely from scratch, touch [Initialize Style] to make the current Style empty.
• If you initialize the Style, set the length (measure amount) of the Source Pattern.
• Set the overall parameters such as Tempo and Beat.
