Adjusting the volume of the keyboard and
accompaniment parts

accompaniment parts. This is useful for making a solo that you
play on the keyboard stand out over the accompaniment, or for
simply performing with good sound balance.

Choosing a music style and playing
Instead of choosing a style, you can select a music style and
then play or record.
A music style is based on a style, but is optimized to include
a keyboard set that easily matches the mood of existing songs,
and contains other seings like tempo.
You can use music styles when playing music from your
favorite genre.
Note:
The keyboard sets of music styles cannot be changed or
saved to a set list.

Press the STYLE/[MUSIC STYLE] buon while holding
