Selecting a Rhythm
This keyboard provides you with 120 exciting rhythms that
you can select using the following procedure.
To select a rhythm
1
Find the rhythm you want to use in the RHYTHM
List and note its rhythm number.
• Not all of the available rhythms are shown on the
rhythm list printed on the keyboard console. For a
complete list, see the “Rhythm List” on page A-8.
2
Press the RHYTHM button.
This keyboard automatically plays bass and chord parts in
accordance with the chords you finger. The bass and chord
parts are played using sounds and tones that are
automatically selected to select the rhythm you are using.
All of this means that you get full, realistic accompaniments
for the melody notes you play with your right hand, creating
the mood of an one-person ensemble.
