Changing the Auto Accompaniment
Mode
Auto Accompaniment cannot be turned
off while the Chord Sequence function is
active. However, you can select an ac-
companiment mode (other than Full
Keyboard) in the ACCOMPANIMENT
MODE display by pressing [DIRECT
ACCESS] followed by the [ACMP ON]
button. The split point can also be
changed in this display.
The Chord Sequence data will auto-
matically replace any previous data in
the Auto Accompaniment and rhythm
tracks that was recorded in the Quick
Record or Track Record modes.
Up to 999 measures can be recorded
using the Chord Sequence function.
The chord input resolution will be
automatically selected according to the
current style. For styles with 2/4, 3/4,
4/4, and 5/4 time signatures, one chord
can be entered on every 8th note or
8th-note triplet. For other time signa-
tures, one chord can be entered for
each measure.
Entering Accompaniment Style and
Section Changes
One style change or section change
(page 123) can be made at the beginning
of each measure (The Intro pattern can
only be entered at the beginning of a
song.). However, Auto Fill data can be
entered anywhere you desire.
CMove the cursor to the entry point. ...............................................

The display shows measures as a horizontal line with 8th-note divi-

sions.

To move the triangular cursor along the measure indication to the

point at which you want to enter a chord or style change, press one of the

CURSOR < or > buttons to highlight the function, then use the data dial

or [–] and [+] buttons.

You can also move the triangular cursor by pressing the CURSOR <

and > buttons.

Adjusting the Volume of Auto Accom-
paniment
You can also enter volume changes for
the Auto Accompaniment. Used judi-
ciously, these can help you create pro-
fessional-sounding dynamic changes in
the Auto Accompaniment of your song.
To do this, first enter the Auto Accompa-
niment part volume data from the MIXER
display; the volume event symbol
( )
will appear in the box at the right side of
the display. To actually record the vol-
ume data at the current position, press
the SET button in the CHORD SE-
QUENCE display. (An initial volume
event is automatically entered at the
beginning of a song.)
