6: Playing the Preset Songs (continued)
The PHRASE KeysEach of the QR10’s 50 preset songs has two pre-
programmed “phrases” that can be played via the
[PHRASE 1] and [PHRASE 2] keys. The phrases –
short chords or decorative runs using a variety of
voices — can be played at any time during playback
to add extra variety to the accompaniment.
All the phrases are quite short (maximum length about 1 measure), but will only play as long as the [PHRASE] key is held.
This means you can hold the key briefly to play just a short section of a phrase, as required. The phrase will repeat continu-
ously as long as the key is held.
■ Selecting Different Phrases
The QR10 PHRASE SELECT function makes it possible to independently select different phrases for the [PHRASE 1]
and [PHRASE 2] keys. You can, for example, select the phrases from two different songs for use while playing a third song.
