Automatic accompaniment

1.Performing with automatic accompaniment

When using the Automatic Accompaniment function, you can simply specify a chord from the keyboard, and an accompaniment appropriate for that chord will be added automatically.

A variety of accompaniment styles are provided, including [PIANIST] (which mainly uses piano sounds suitable for a piano performance), and styles such as pops, rock, jazz, and dance music. These accompaniments are called “rhythm styles” (a total of 217 styles are provided), and are organized into ten rhythm style groups.

A Rhythm Style consists of six musical tracks: Drum (a conventional drum set as used in popular music), Perc (all percussion instruments other than drums), Bass (the low-range instrument), and Acc1–3 (accompaniment instruments).
