See below for details about Style File Format.

■Style File Format

The Style File Format (SFF) combines all of Yamaha’s auto accompaniment know-how into a single uni- fied format. By using the Parameter Edit function, you can take advantage of the power of the SFF format and freely create your own styles.

The chart below indicates the process by which the accompaniment is played back. (This does not apply to the rhythm track.)

The source pattern in the chart is the original style data. As explained on page 132, in style recording this source pattern is recorded.

As shown in the chart below, the actual output of the accompaniment is determined by various parameter settings and chord changes (playing chords in the auto accompaniment section of the keyboard) entered to this source pattern.

These parameters determine how the pitch of the source pattern is converted when you play chords in the auto accompaniment section of the key- board.

Since newly created style data is stored to Flash ROM, any pre-programmed data in the selected style location will be erased and replaced by your new settings. This includes the factory programmed Flash style data (Flash styles I through VIII). If you've deleted the factory-set data, you can use the Restore function (page 154) to load a copy of it from the included disks (page 6).
