• Since the pianist styles (128 ~

140) and the guitar serenade

style (121) have no rhythm

parts, no sound will be pro-

duced if you start rhythm-only

playback. To use these styles

turn the style on and play on

the keyboard (the non-rhythm

accompaniment parts will

sound). Refer to page 19 for

information on turning styles on

and off.
