A Style is made up of the different Sections (Intro, Main, Ending, etc.) and each Section has separate
channels (rhythm pattern, bass line, chord backing, pad, or phrase, each of which is referred to as a “Source
Pattern”). With the Style Creator function, you can create an original Style by separately recording the
channels, or by copying pattern data from other existing Styles.
Basic Procedure for Creating a Style
1
Select the desired Style to be used as the basis for the new Style.
2
Call up the Style Creator display.

3
From the BASIC page, select a Section.
(If the RECORD display is shown in the lower half section of the display, press the [EXIT] button.) Press
the [A] button to select “1 SECTION,” then use the [3
]/[4
] buttons to select a Section.
Carry out the following operations as necessary.
• If you create a Style entirely from scratch, press the [C] (NEW STYLE) button to call up an empty new
Style.
• For the current Section, select the pattern length via the [5
]/[6
] buttons. After selecting, press
the [D] (EXECUTE) button to actually enter the specified length.
Note that if an Audio Style is selected as the basic data (PSR-S975), changing the pattern length deletes
the corresponding Audio part.
• For the entire current Style, use the [A]/[B] buttons to select “2 TEMPO/BEAT,” then set the Tempo via
the [3
]/[4
] buttons, and the Time Signature via the [5
]/[6
] buttons.
NOTE
Even when you are editing an existing Style, changing the Time Signature (BEAT) clears the data from all sections, and you will need to create the Style
from scratch.
Creating/Editing Styles (Style Creator)
(PSR-S975) Limitations on the Audio part:
• If you select a preset Audio Style as starting data, the Audio part is to be used as is. The Audio part can-
not be deleted, edited and created from scratch.
• The created Style containing the Audio part can be used only via an instrument that supports Audio
Styles as well as the SFF GE format.
• The Audio part cannot be copied from another Style or Section in the ASSEMBLY page. If you want to
use a specific Audio part, make sure to select the corresponding Audio Style before calling up the Style
Creator display.
