*3 Press while a variation pattern is playing to insert a fill-in variation pattern.

Using One-Touch Presets

One-Touch Preset gives you one-touch access to tone and tempo settings that go well with the currently selected Auto Accompaniment rhythm pattern.

To perform using a one-touch preset

1.If rhythm is playing, press the L-16 (START/ STOP) button to stop it.

2.Select the rhythm (excluding user rhythms) you want to use.

3.While holding down the L-7 ([E] PIANO RHYTHMS) button, press the L-8 ([F] USER RHYTHMS) button.

•Settings for the following items are configured appropriately for the rhythm you selected in step 2.

–Tones for the UPPER 1, UPPER 2, and LOWER parts

–Octave shift for the UPPER 1, UPPER 2, and LOWER parts

–Layer and split on/off

–Accompaniment on/off

–Reverb on/off and type

–Chorus type

–Auto harmonize or Arpeggiator on/off and type

–Tempo

•Also, the F indicator flashes on the display to indicate that the normal Auto Accompaniment pattern is standing by.

4.Start playing something on the keyboard.

•Perform the procedure starting from step 7 under “Playing an Auto Accompaniment” (page E-24).

•One-Touch Presets are not supported for user rhythms (F:001 through F:100).

•You can recall one-touch preset settings even if a rhythm is already playing when you perform step 3 of the above procedure. In this case, rhythm play will continue without going into synchro standby.
