Accompaniment

Starting the Accompaniment
There are several ways to start the accompaniment:

Straight Start...........................................................................................................................................

Press the [START/STOP] button.
Each of the styles also has a variation that can be selected by pressing the [VARIA-
TION/FILL TO VARIATION] button (its LED will light) before pressing the [START/
STOP] button. Normally the [NORMAL/FILL TO NORMAL] button LED will be lit (or
you can select it if the variation is selected), indicating that the normal pattern is selected.
The selected start mode can be disengaged prior to starting the accompaniment by
pressing the selected button (flashing indicator) a second time.
Any of the start types described above can be synchronized to the first note or chord
played on the keyboard by first pressing the [SYNCHRO START] button so that its indi-
cator lights. When the keyboard is split or Auto Bass Chord Single Finger or Fingered
mode is used, the first note played on the left-hand section of the keyboard will start the
accompaniment (i.e. keys to the left of and including the split-point key — normally F#2).
Once the synchronized start mode has been selected, use the [NORMAL/FILL TO NOR-
MAL], [VARIATION/FILL TO VARIATION] and/or [INTRO/ENDING] buttons to
select the type of start you want.
The first dot of the BEAT display will flash at the current tempo when a synchronized
start mode has been selected.

Start With an Introduction .....................................................................................................................

Press the [INTRO/ENDING] button.
If you press the [NORMAL/FILL TO NORMAL] or [VARIATION/FILL TO VARI-
ATION] button while holding the [INTRO/ENDING] button, the rhythm will start with
an appropriate fill and then go to the normal rhythm or variation rhythm, respectively.
The synchronized start mode can be cancelled by pressing the [SYNCHRO START]
button a second time so that its indicator goes out.
NOTES
The synchronized start mode is automatically turned on when one of the ABC modes is
engaged see page 20 for details.
