KEY SETTING
Set the key and chord in which you wish the recorded pattern to be played. If the recorded performance is played in a key or chord different from this setting, the automatic accompaniment will not be able to distinguish the correct chord.
1.On the RECORDING display press the KEY
SETTING button.
• The display looks similar to the following.
2.Use the KEY ∧ and ∨ buttons to set the key. Use the CHORD ∧ and ∨ buttons to set the chord type (Maj/Min).
3.When you have finished making the settings, press the EXIT button.
•For the ACCOMP and BASS parts, select sounds from groups other than the DIGITAL DRAWBAR sound groups.
•The sounds marked with # represent special guitar per- formances and changing them to other sounds may result in an unnatural, awkward sound expression.
4.Record the part.
•The specified number of measures are repeatedly played back, during which time any newly played notes are added to those already recorded. The current measure number is shown on the display as “MEASURE=”.
•Record the performance in C major for correct chord pro- gressions during playback. Follow the KEY SETTING procedure if you wish to record the performance in a dif- ferent scale.
•The sustain pedal operation or PITCH BEND and MODU- LATION effects when MIDI data is received are also recorded (except for the DRUMS part).
