Tone and Style demo — <Sound>/<Style>

To give you a better idea of the KR-11’s Tones (sounds) and Music Styles (accompaniments), the KR-11 comes with a Sound and Style Demo function. Here is how to use them.

1.On the Demo screen, press <Sound> for a demon- stration of the Tones, or <Style> for an explanation and demonstration of the Music Styles.

2.Press <Demo> at the bottom right of the display.

3.Use the buttons to the left and right of the display to choose the instrument you want to hear, or press <Next> to audition the next Music Style.

A demo song using the selected Tone or Music Style is played. The number of demo songs varies according to the Tone you select. When the first song ends, the next one starts to play.

4.You can start playback of the second demo by press- ing the same button (or <Next>) again.

The performance stops automatically when all songs have been played.

5.Press <Exit> or <To Menu> to stop playback. Note: All rights reserved. Unauthorized use of the demo songs for purposes other than private enjoyment is a viola- tion of applicable laws.

Note: The performance data of the demo songs are not transmitted to the MIDI OUT connector.
