Cartridge Accompaniment Styles
Optional Style Music Cartridges provides extra accompaniment styles that can be
used in the same way as the internal accompaniment styles after pressing the [STYLE]
button to select the STYLE menu.
Cartridges which contain both song and style data require a slightly different style
selection procedure: Press and hold the number [3] button until the cartridge icon
appears to the left of the style name in the display, then enter the number of the
cartridge style you want to select via the number buttons or data dial in the normal way.
The cartridge styles can also be selected by using the [–] and [+] buttons or data dial
to go beyond the highest or lowest internal style numbers — e.g. pressing the [+]
button while internal style number 100 is selected will select cartridge style number
01 (the cartridge icon will appear).
The cartridge styles are used in exactly the same way as the internal accompaniment
styles (page 22).

• Some cartridge styles,
for example, have A
and B intro and end-
ing sections as well
as A and B main sec-
tions. In such a case,
if the [INTRO] and
MAIN/AUTO FILL [A]
buttons are pressed in
order to start the ac-
companiment with an
introduction and then
go to the main A sec-
tion, the intro A sec-
tion will play. If the
[INTRO] and MAIN/
AUTO FILL [B] but-
tons are pressed, the
intro B section will
play. A similar situa-
tion applies to end-
ings: if the main A or
B section is playing
and the [ENDING]
button is pressed, the
ending A or B section
will play accordingly.
• You may not be able
to select the cartridge
styles just after turn-
ing the power on
since it takes for a
while for the PSR-530
to read the cartridge
style data.
