Styles (Auto Accompaniment)

This instrument includes an auto-accompaniment feature that plays appropriate “styles” (rhythm + bass + chord accompaniment) when you play left-hand chords. 135 different styles covering a wide range of musical genres are provided (see page 84 for a complete style list). Here’s how you can use the auto-accompaniment feature.

To use these styles turn on the auto-accompaniment and play on the keyboard as described on page 28 (the bass and chord accompaniment parts will sound).

5 Press the [ACMP ON/OFF] button.

This turns auto-accompaniment on. Check that “ACMP ON” appears in the dis- play.
