User Presets
Timing Setting and Chord Progression Playback
This section explains how chord progressions are played in accordance with the “Timing Set” settings in step 2
under “To change how an Auto Accompaniment is played” (page EN-39). Note that this setting affects playback
only. It does not change the chord progression data.
Normal
Plays chords at the same timing as the recording.
Half
Plays chords measure-by-measure at a timing that is half that of the recording.
Example:
The following shows what happens when the “Half” setting is used to play back a user preset that was created
based on a music preset whose rhythm is a 4/4 time.
Half Playback when a 4/4 time rhythm is assigned to the user preset
Half Playback when a 2/4 time rhythm is assigned to the user preset
Double
Plays chords measure-by-measure at a timing that is double that of the recording.
Playing back a chord progression like that shown for “Half” above while “Double” is specified results in the
progression shown below.
Double Playback when a 4/4 time rhythm is assigned to the user preset
Double Playback when an 8/4 time rhythm is assigned to the user preset
