Rewinding and Fast Forwarding Through Songs

1. First, make sure your current status is as follows:

•The [Utility] button is not lit.

You cannot rewind and fast forward through songs when the [Utility] button is lit and the Utility menu is active.

•The [Others] button tone name is not indicated in the screen

While the name of the tone for the [Others] button is displayed in the

screen, pressing the Menu [ ] and [ ] buttons changes the voice group.

2.Press the Menu [ ] and [ ] buttons to change the measure from which playback is to start.

Press the Menu [ ] to return to an earlier point in the song. Press the

Menu [ ] to advance to a later point in the song.

If you press the [Play/Stop] button while holding down the [Reset] button, the metronome will play two measures (bars) of count-in before playback starts.

The [Play/Stop] function can be assigned to the foot switch. Each touch of the foot switch will alternate the operation between the Play and Stop functions (p. 87).

You can specify whether or not the Expression Pedal will affect the playback and what you play while Atelier music data is being played back (p. 83).

NOTE

If you use the Rhythm or Automatic Accompaniment immediately after having loaded and played back a song other than an Atelier performance song, such as SMF’s, etc., the playback may not sound right (the voices may have changed, etc.) To prevent this from happening, press the [Reset] button before playback.

NOTE

The Menu [ ] and [ ] buttons are disabled in the following situations:

•When the Harmony Intelligence type is being changed

•When drum sets are being changed

•While the Demo screen is displayed

•When a registration or song name is being changed
