trigger the MELODY INTELL part. If you don’t need
this switching function, select “Off” (no velocity
value).

(7) Press the [MELODY¥INTELL] button once again to
switch off this automatic harmony function.
Using the Style Cover function
The COVER function provides “masks” that change the
instrumentation of the selected Music Style. Simply by
selecting another preset, you can cause a Viennese
waltz to be played back by a heavy metal band, etc.
Even though the arrangement (rhythm, riffs) does not
change, the Style’s character can be modified beyond
recognition.
(1) Press the [COVER] button once or twice to select
the display page shown below.
(2) Select the parts whose instrumentation you want
to change:
• Press the [ALL] field if all instruments should be
replaced.
• Press the [DRUM] field if only the drum and percus-
sion instruments should change.
• Press the [BASS] field if you’re happy with everything
but the bass line’s sound.
(3) Press one of the six fields in the lower half of the
display to select another preset.
If you don’t like any of the presets, press [ORIGINAL]
(page 1) to return to the original orchestration.
(4) If none of the displayed presets appeal to you, use
the PAGE [ø][˚] fields at the right to jump to
another page with different presets.
(5) Try out various presets to see how (fast) this con-
cept works.
(6) If you like the new version better than the original
one, press the [SAVE] field to save the Music Style
to the internal memory, a memory card or floppy
disk (see p. 77).
Note: The COVER information is part of the data only the G-70
understands.
Note: You can also modify the COVER settings yourself (see
p. 124).
■Saved Version
The STYLE COVER page contains a [SAVED¥VERSION]
field that works as follows:
There can be three different versions of each Music
Style you use:
In case [3], the [ORIGINAL] field on the STYLE COVER
page temporarily restores the original version with
no COVER data. To return to state [2] after selecting a
different COVER, press the [SAVED¥VERSION] field.
Doing so restores the “original” COVER setting you
saved.
Note: Saving a Music Style with a COVER settings affects all
User Programs that refer to this Style.
Saving a Music Style with a COVER alteration
As stated above, you can decide to change any Music
Style on a more or less permanent basis by saving it
with the last COVER (or STYLE MAKEUP TOOLS, p. 124).
(1) On the STYLE COVER page, select the desired
COVER preset (see above).
(2) Press the [SAVE] field.
The display changes to:
[1] The original Music Style without COVER settings. This
version can be selected by pressing the [ORIGINAL]
field on page 1.
[2] The same Music Style with one of the COVER presets
already applied. This version can be saved using the
[SAVE] field. If you save this version, the Music Style in
question will use the COVER settings whenever you
select it using the standard procedure (see p. 27) or the
Style Finder (see p. 86).
[3] A Music Style saved with the [SAVE] field, which you
recall and then alter by selecting another COVER pre-
set (without saving this setting).
