Why does the style not sound properly on my Yamaha PSR-E223 YPT-220?
If the Style does not sound properly on your Yamaha Musical Instrument: * Make sure that the Style Volume is set to an appropriate level. * Verify that the Split Point is set at an appropriate key for the chords you are playing and that the 'ACMP ON' indicator is showing in the display. If it is not showing, press the [ACMP ON/OFF] button so that it does show. * Note that the auto accompaniment will sometimes not change when related chords are played in sequence (e.g. some minor chords followed by the minor seventh). Two-note fingerings will produce a chord based on the previously played chord. Playing two same root keys in the adjacent octaves produces accompaniment based only on the root.
