Selecting and playing a Style
Quick Guide
2 Select a Style from the Style Select window.
3 Be sure one of the Chord Scan modes is selected.
4 Press the SYNCHRO-START/STOP button to turn the START LED on.
This will turn the Synchro-Start function on, and let the accompaniment start as soon as you
play a chord on the keyboard.
Note: You could simply
press START/STOP to start the
Style, but the Synchro-Start
function allows you to make
the Style start in sync with
your playing on the key-
board. Therefore, it may be
considered a “more musical”
way of starting a Style.
5 Play the keyboard.
Note: The chord scan
area depends on the status of
the SPLIT LED and the Chord
Recognition parameter (see
Global > Mode Preferences >
Style).
6 Press START/STOP to stop the Style.
After pressing the EXIT button, the Style Select window
closes, and the main screen appears again, with the selected
Style ready to go.
For chord scanning to work, either of both LEDs must be turned on. Lower: chords
are recognized on the left of the split point; Upper: chords are recognized on the
right of the split point; Full (both LEDs on): chords are recognized on the whole key-
board. Off: only the Drum track can be heard.

When the Syncho-Start function is turned on, the Style starts
playing as soon as you play a note or chord in the chord scan area.
Play chords with your left hand, and the melody with your right
hand. The arranger will follow your playing.
