Procedure: Chord Step Recording

The CHORD STEP recording feature makes it possible to record accompaniment chord changes one at a time

with precise timing. Since the changes don’t have to be entered in real time, it is easy to create even complex

accompaniments before recording the melody.

Select the CHORD STEP display via the or LCD button to the right of the display in the QUICK RECORD

mode.

Z Select an entry point...............................................................................................................................................................

Use the CURSOR LCD dials to position the cursor at the

measure and beat at which you want to enter a chord or other

accompaniment event. The largest <> controls move the

cursor in 8-measure steps, the medium <> controls move the

cursor in 1-measure steps, while the small

<> controls position

the cursor in the smallest increment allowed for the current

style. Measure numbers appear above each measure division on

the “data line”, and the smaller division represent the smallest

increment available for the current style. The measure numbers

will scroll accordingly when the cursor is moved past the last or

first measure on the display (but not backwards past measure 1).

X Specify a chord, volume change, or other event......................................................................................

To specify a chord change use the ROOT and TYPE LCD

dials to specify the chord. It is also possible to enter chords

directly via the AUTO ACCOMPANIMENT section of the

keyboard (but not when the FULL KEYBOARD or MANUAL

BASS fingering mode is selected).

To specify a volume change use the VOL. LCD dial to

specify the new volume level.

Other events which can be entered via the panel controls are:

STYLE changes, INTRO A/B, MAIN/AUTO FILL, ENDING

and TEMPO changes. STYLE change, INTRO A/B, and END-

ING events can only be entered at the top of each measure. The

edited event appears in inverse text in the event window near the

lower right corner of the display.

C Enter the specified event(s). .......................................

Once the event or events to be entered have been specified as

described in the preceding step, press the SET LCD button to

actually enter the event at the current cursor position. A dot will

appear on the CHORD STEP data line and the cursor will

advance to the top of the next beat (or appropriate point).
