One Touch Setting in the Song Mode
The One Touch Setting function works with the Minus
One function and automatically selects an appropriate
Voice for playing the melody along with the Song you
select. Though the Minus One function is not used
with the Jam Track patterns, One Touch Setting works
the same way with Jam Track, automatically selecting
an appropriate Voice.
To turn on the One Touch Setting function, press the
ONE TOUCH SETTING button. (The LED next to the
button lights.)
About the Minus One Function
Minus One, as its name implies, takes away the
melody part of the Song, allowing you to play that part
yourself. You can turn Minus One on before starting a
Song, or do it even while a Song is playing. To help
you play the “missing” melody, scores for all
Songs have been provided; see pages 16-25.
To use the Minus One function with the selected Song,
press the MINUS ONE button (either before starting
the Song or while it is playing). (The LED next to the
button lights.)
If playback is not stopped, all Songs play back
repeatedly in succession, indefinitely. (However, if
Minus One is on, only the selected Song repeatedly
plays back.) If a Jam Track pattern is selected, only
the selected pattern repeats indefinitely.
The Song mode features special Songs and Jam
Track patterns that have been created using the rich
sounds and sophisticated accompaniment functions
of the PortaTone.
The Songs are generally for your listening
enjoyment; however, you can also play along with
them on the keyboard. Also, by using the Minus One
function, you can “mute” the original melody and play
it manually on the keyboard yourself. The Jam Track
patterns in this mode let you “jam” or play along with
a variety of dynamic rhythm styles and chord
changes.
Selecting and Playing a Song
or Jam Track Pattern
1.
Press the SONG button to select the Song mode.
2.
Use the Numeric Keypad to select the desired Song
or Jam Track number.
3.
Start the selected Song or Jam Track by pressing the
START/STOP button.
You can also start the selected Song or Jam Track
pattern with the Synchro Start function (as in the Style
mode) by simply pressing any key of the keyboard.
4.
If you want to change to another Song or Jam
Track pattern, repeat step 2 above.
5.
To stop the Song or pattern, press the START/
STOP button again.
To turn the function off, press the button again.
NOTE
Keep in mind that even with the One Touch Setting function on,
there are some Songs and Jam Track patterns which change the
selected Voice in the middle of the Song or pattern.
