Play with the right hand while operating Knob A with the left hand.
If you select a different keyboard voice the knobs will be reset and the ideal settings for the selected voice will be automatically recalled. In the same way, if the v STYLE FILTER effect is selected, the knobs will be reset if a different style is selected. If you create an original setting you like, it might be a good idea to save it in the instruments Registration Memory (page 80) so you can recall the same settings again at any time. You can also record performances using original sounds youve created (page 52). The chart below lists some interesting ways to use the various effects that can be assigned to the knobs.
Changing the knob settings does not immediately change the sound. Newly assigned effects will only change the sound when the knobs are rst operated after the new effect has been selected.
Some Ideas for Using the Knobs
Number/Effect Try This Select a synth-type lead or pad voice (page 106). Turn Knob B all the way up and operate Knob A while playing for some spacey, oating 1980s effects. Select a voice that sounds as though it already has reverb and chorus effects applied, and turn Knob A and Knob B all the way down to hear the direct sound of the voice. You can then turn the Knob A and Knob B settings up to add extra impact and richness to the voice. Select a piano voice, and turn Knob B all the way up and Knob A to about the 3 oclock position. This should give you a majestic, organ-like sound. The attack time is quite long so play the keys and hold them to let the sound come in fully. Ideal for slow pieces. Select style 39, Euro Trance. Turn accompaniment on and start style playback (page 34). Set Knob B to about 3 oclock, and Knob A to about 8 oclock. The overall sound of the style should be a bit mufed, with the drums emphasized for solid rhythmic impact. Play a style and/or arpeggio (page 14) and use Knob A to adjust the tempo.

This instrument includes a performance assistant technology feature that lets you play along with a song and sound like a great pianist (even though you might be making lots of mistakes)! In fact, you can play any notes and still sound good! So even if you cant play piano and cant read a note of music, you can have some musical fun. Its never too late to start learning!
Refer to page 25 for more information on using performance assistant technology to help you play.

You can switch style sections to add variety to the accompaniment. Refer to Pattern Variation (Sections) on page 70.
Styles Are More Fun When You Understand Chords
Chords, created by playing multiple notes at the same time, are the basis for harmonic accompaniment. In this section well take a look at sequences of different chords played one after another, or chord sequences. Since each chord has its own unique coloreven if its different ngerings of the same chordthe chords you choose to use in your chord progressions have a huge inuence on the overall feel of the music you play. On page 34 you learned how to play colorful accompaniments using styles. Chord progressions are vital to creating interesting accompaniments, and with a little chord know-how you should be able to take your accompaniments to a new level. On these pages well introduce three easy-to-use chord progressions. Be sure to try them out with the instruments accompaniment styles. The style will respond to the chord progression you play, effectively creating a complete song.
Playing the Chord Progressions

Play the scores with the left hand. Before playing the scores follow steps 1 through 3 of Play Along with a Style on page 34.

This instrument features 165 internal styles, but other styles, such as those provided on the CD-ROM and others that can be obtained from the internet (only styles with the.sty sufx), can be loaded into style number 166 and used in the same way as the internal styles. In order to use the style le load function, the le must already have been transferred from the computer to the instrument. The procedure for transferring les from a computer to the instrument is described on page 90 (Transferring Data between the Computer and Instrument). The procedure described below loads a style le that has already been transferred from a computer to the instrument into style number 166.

Chord Basics

Two or more notes played together constitute a chord. The most basic chord type is the triad consisting of three notes: the root, third, and fth degrees of the corresponding scale. A C major triad, for example, is made up of the notes C (the root), E (the third note of the C major scale), and G (the fth note of the C major scale).
In the C major triad shown above, the lowest note is the root of the chord (this is the chords root position. using other chord notes for the lowest note results in inversions). The root is the central sound of the chord, which supports and anchors the other chord notes. The distance (interval) between adjacent notes of a triad in root position is either a major or minor third.
Major thirdfour half steps (semitones) Minor thirdthree half steps (semitones)
The lowest interval in our root-position triad (between the root and the third) determines whether the triad is a major or minor chord, and we can shift the highest note up or down by a semitone to produce two additional chords, as shown below.
Major chord CM Minor chord Cm Augmented chord C aug Diminished chord C dim

Minor 3rd

Major 3rd
The basic characteristics of the chord sound remain intact even if we change the order of the notes to create different inversions. Successive chords in a chord progression can be smoothly connected, for example, by choosing the appropriate inversions (or chord voicings).

Reading Chord Names

Chord names tell you just about everything you need to know about a chord (other than the inversion/voicing). The chord name tells you what the root of the chord is, whether it is a major, minor, or diminished chord, whether it requires a major or atted seventh, what alterations or tensions it uses. all at a glance.

* These chords are not shown in the Dictionary function.
NOTE Notes in parentheses can be omitted.
Playing two same root keys in the adjacent octaves produces accompaniment based only on the root. A perfect fth (1+5) produces accompaniment based only on the root and fth which can be used with both major and minor chords. The chord ngerings listed are all in root position, but other inversions can be usedwith the following exceptions: m7, m7b5, 6, m6, sus4, aug, dim7, 7b5, 6(9), sus2.
NOTE Inversion of the 7sus4 and m7(11) chords are not recognized if the notes shown in parentheses are omitted.
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 ngerings will produce a chord based on the previously played chord.
Looking Up Chords Using the Chord Dictionary
The Dictionary function is essentially a built-in chord book that shows you the individual notes of chords. It is ideal when you know the name of a certain chord and want to quickly learn how to play it.

Do not use the instrument in the vicinity of a TV, radio, stereo equipment, mobile phone, or other electric devices. Otherwise, the instrument, TV, or radio may generate noise. Do not place the instrument in an unstable position where it might accidentally fall over. Before moving the instrument, remove all connected adaptor and other cables. When setting up the product, make sure that the AC outlet you are using is easily accessible. If some trouble or malfunction occurs, immediately turn off the power switch and disconnect the plug from the outlet.
