Using Auto Accompaniment
Accompaniment Track Control
The PSR-520 has eight accompaniment tracks — RHYTHM 1/2, BASS,
CHORD 1/2, PAD, and PHRASE 1/2 — that you can control to modify the
“orchestration” and therefore the overall sound of the accompaniment. When
the power switch is turned ON or an accompaniment style is selected,
RHYTHM 1, CHORD 1 and PHRASE 1 tracks appear on the display.
RHYTHM 2, CHORD 2 and PHRASE 2 tracks can be selected by moving the
cursor
o r
button from track to track when the cursor is located at one
of the track icons. If the RHYTHM 1 track is selected and the cursor is moved
once to the right, for example, the cursor will not actually move but
“RHYTHM 2” will appear in place of “RHYTHM 1” and the parameters for
the RHYTHM 2 track can be changed as required. The same applies to the
CHORD 1 and 2, and PHRASE 1 and 2 tracks.
RHYTHM 1&2
Both these tracks provide the drum and/or percussion sounds.
BASS
The BASS track always plays a bass line, but the voice will
change to fit the selected style . . . acoustic bass, synth bass,
tuba, etc.
CHORD 1&2
Both these tracks provide the rhythmic chordal accompaniment
required by each style. You’ll find guitar, piano, and other
chordal instruments here.
PAD
This track plays long chords where necessary, using sustained
instruments such as strings, organ, choir.
PHRASE 1&2
This is where the musical embellishments reside. The
PHRASE tracks are used for punchy brass stabs, arpeggiated
chords, and other extras that make the accompaniment more
interesting.
The icons for all tracks that con-
tain data in any section will ap-
pear whenever an accompani-
ment style is selected.
