• 5 Styles and Oriental Styles
You can enjoy playing the keyboard sounds in real time while PK5 Oriental takes care
of the accompaniment, as if you were playing with a band of musicians. The automatic
arrangements are provided by the Styles of the PK5 Oriental.
This chapter describes the automatic arrangements of the Styles, how to select them and
how to store them to the Performances.
The tracks contain several programmable parameters: sound, volume, pan, transpose,
detune, reverb, chorus, pitch bend , pedal volume and damper.
The arrangement patterns of all the Styles are fixed and cannot be modified.
ABOUT THE PK5 Oriental STYLES
Styles are a collection of musical patterns representing many types of music, ranging
from rock and pop to traditional, latin and oriental music.
Each PK5 Oriental Style has 2 Variations, 2 Intros, 2 Fills and 2 Endings. A Style,
therefore, provides a complete range of musical structures with which you can create an
entire song.
Styles provide automatic accompaniments triggered by the chord information received
from the PK5 Oriental keyboard and the accompaniment patterns change to suit the
current chord.
Each Style consists of 8 tracks: the first 5 are engaged by the sequencer for the auto
accompaniments, and the remaining 3 belong to the real time keyboard sections (Upper
1, Upper 2, Lower). The 5 accompaniment tracks are divided as follows: track 1 DRUMS
(drum sets), track 2 BASS, tracks 3, 4 and 5 correspond to ACC1, ACC2, ACC3 respec-
tively (accompaniments 1, 2 and 3).
The Styles available in memory have Program change numbers from 00 - 95 and are
arranged in groups of 8, as shown in the Style tables on the top part of the instrument
panel (STYLE / SONG).
The 24 Oriental Styles are stored in the two Arab Groups 1 and 2 (8+8 Arabic), and in the
Ethnic Group (4 Greek and 4 Turkish).
Selecting Styles
To recall a Style (Oriental or Western), use the following procedure.
1. Press the SINGLE TOUCH PLAY button (the corresponding display indicator turns on).
With the S.T.PLAY function on, whatever Style you select will always be the ROM
version, allowing you to draw information directly from the internal memory, elimi-
nating all the operations carried out on the panel.
