Playing the rhythm

2.Use the LEFT HOLD: ON/OFF button to set the mode to on or off.

OFF:

The LEFT part sounds from the pressed chord keys.

When BASIC is selected, the LEFT part turns off. The LEFT part sounds if you turn it on, but <one-finger> chords cannot be specified.

ON:

Specifying <one-finger> chords in the BASIC mode produces the full chords; otherwise the LEFT part notes are those of the pressed chord keys.

When BASIC is selected the LEFT part turns off, but it will sound if you turn it on.

Touch response does not function for the LEFT part.

When the mode is set to ON, during a rhythm performance, the LEFT part continues to play even when the keys are released.

Use the APC/SEQUENCER VOLUME slide con- trol to adjust the volume.

Use this control to lower the automatic accom- paniment volume when it is too loud relative to your manual performance.

At the MAX position, the volumes of the auto- matic accompaniment parts correspond to their current settings; at the OFF position, the volume is 0. The volume should normally be set to MAX.

The set values are shown in the APC column of the normal display. (Refer to page 29.)

The volume can be adjusted for each part. (Refer to page 29.)

When the position of the slide control coin- cides with the actual volume, the indicator is lit. When the volume is changed by of the PANEL MEMORY or SEQUENCER playback, the actual volume differs from that indicated by the position of the slide control. In this case, the indicator is not lit.

The volume of the PERFORMANCE PADS part does not change.

During SEQUENCER playback or disk DIRECT PLAY, operation of this slide control affects the total volume of all the playback parts.
