Main Features

Featuring the newly developed V-Arranger with sophisticated rhythm sounds and realistic automatic accompaniment

You will enjoy rhythm and automatic accompaniment so realistic that it sounds like your own backup band is right there!

Newly developed Active Expression sounds

For some of the sounds, moving the expression pedal will vary not only the volume but also the tone, or add other sounds. From pianissimo to fortissimo, the tonal character of the sound itself will change as you perform a crescendo, or strings may appear behind the piano, creating dynamic changes in tonality.

Human voices

In addition to its diverse organ voices, the ATELIER-S series instruments also offer unique vocals, such as “Jazz Scat.”

Harmony Intelligence

The Harmony Intelligence function automatically adds harmony to the upper keyboard sound according to the chord you play in the lower keyboard. This gives you greater ton- al depth and a more powerful performance.

Store disk styles in internal memory

Although the Rhythm [Disk] button already contains various rhythms, these can be re- placed by rhythms from a music style disk. Rhythms that are loaded from a music style disk into internal memory will not be lost even when the power is turned off, so you will find it convenient to load frequently used rhythms into internal memory.

The Lyrics for SMF Music Files can be displayed

When playing back commercially available SMF music files with lyrics, the lyrics can be viewed on the instrument’s display, allowing you to enjoy karaoke.

The explanations in this manual include illustrations that depict what should typically be shown by the display. Note, however, that your unit may incorporate a newer, enhanced version of the system (e.g., includes newer sounds), so what you actually see in the display may not always match what appears in the manual.

[+][-], [ ][ ], [ ][ ] means that you should press one or the other button. Example: Select [-][+] buttons, Reverb [ ][ ] buttons, Tempo [ ][ ] buttons
