Playing a Style with the Auto Accompaniment

1
Press one of the STYLE category selection buttons to call up
the Style Selection display.
2
Press one of the [A] – [J] buttons to select the desired Style.
Pressing one of the [1 ] – [4 ] buttons or pressing the same STYLE button
again can call up the other display page.
3
Press the [ACMP] button to turn on the Auto Accompaniment.
The specific left-hand section of the keyboard (page 35) becomes the Chord
section, and chords played in this section are automatically detected and used as
a basis for fully automatic accompaniment with the selected Style.

The instrument features a variety of accompaniment and rhythmic
backing patterns (called "Styles") in a variety of different musical
genres including pop, jazz, and many others. The Style features
Auto Accompaniment, letting you produce automatic
accompaniment playback simply by playing "chords" with your
left hand. This lets you automatically recreate the sound of a full
band or orchestra — even if you're playing by yourself.
The [EXPANSION/USER] button can be used to easily
recall your favorite Styles and call up Expansion Styles
(additionally installed Styles). The operations of both are
the same as the [EXPANSION/USER] button in the VOICE
category selection buttons. For instructions, refer to the
section "Recalling your favorite Voices easily" (page 33)
and "Expanding Voices" (page 36).
