Playing Styles
This instrument includes the Auto Accompaniment feature that plays appropriate
“Styles” (rhythm + bass + chord accompaniment). You can select from a huge variety of
Styles covering a wide range of musical genres.
1
Press the [STYLE] button, then use the
number buttons [0]–[9], [+], [-] to select
the desired Style.
The Style List is provided on the front panel, or in
the Style List (page 71).
2
Press the [ACMP ON/OFF] button to turn
on the Auto Accompaniment.
With this operation, the area of the keyboard to
the left of the Split Point (054: F#2) becomes the
“Auto Accompaniment range” and is used only for
specifying the chords.
The highest key for the Auto Accompaniment
range is referred to as the “Split Point,” which can
be changed from the default of F#2 via Function
number 007 (page 45).
3
Press the [SYNC START] button to turn
Synchro Start on.
This puts the Style playback in “standby” and
Style starts playing back when you play the key-
board.
4
Play a chord in the Auto Accompaniment
range to start playback.
Play a melody with the right hand and chords with
the left hand.
For information about chords, refer to “Chord
Types for Style Playback” (page 25) or use the
Chord Dictionary function (page 26).
5
Press the [START/STOP] button to stop
playback.
You can add intro, ending and rhythm variations
to Style playback by using “Sections.” For details,
refer to page 24.
Adjusting the Style Volume
To adjust the volume balance between Style play-
back and keyboard, you can adjust the Style Volume.
This can be set via Function number 001 (page 45).

• Since the Pianist category Styles (157–165) have no
rhythm parts, no sound will be produced if you start
rhythm-only playback. When playing these Styles, make
sure to carry out Steps 2–4 on this page.
