Choosing a Variation to play a Verse or Chorus
Variations can be used for verses, choruses, bridges or specials. To choose
the right Variation for your verse, please note that Variations are of growing
‘density’ and ‘loudness’. This means that Variation 1 will be the ‘sparsest’
and the ‘quietest’ of the arrangements, while Variation 4 will be the ‘dens-
est’ and ‘loudest’ of them. Usually, you will use Variation 1 for the first verse,
Variation 4 for the last chorus.
Style Element Suggested use
Variation 1 Verse, Bridge, Chorus or Special (lowest density)
Variation 2 Verse, Bridge, Chorus or Special (medium-low density)
Variation 3 Verse, Bridge, Chorus or Special (medium-high density)
Variation 4 Verse, Bridge, Chorus or Special (highest density)
▪ Wait for the Intro to end playing, and then the selected Variation will start

While the Intro is playing, press one of the VARIATION buttons. The Variation
will start at the next measure.
