Note: When using 16-track Sequencer, the Composer’s five
Track buttons do not function.

9.2 Chord Sequencer
The Chord Sequencer allows you to “pre-program” the
chord progression and Style divisions to be used by
the Arranger. Doing so will allow you to concentrate
on the melody because the Chord Sequencer will take
care of feeding the Arranger with the correct chord
information and selecting the desired Style division.
1.
Press <Chord Sequencer> on the Composer Menu
page.
A Chord Sequencer screen like the one below appears
on the display.
(For more information on divisions, see “Muting
parts of a division” on page 38.)
2.
Use the MUSIC STYLE buttons to choose a Style
group.
After several seconds, the display returns to the Chord
Sequencer screen.
3.
Use <INS> to insert the desired number of blank
measures for the song you wish to input.
4.
Use the <√> and <®> at the bottom right of the
display or the [BWD] and [FWD] buttons to move
the cursor (▲) to the position where the chord and
division are to be input.
5.
To enter a chord, play it in the lower half of the
keyboard.
The chord display serves as a guide for entering
chords. If you have doubts about the correct way of
playing a given chord, just look at what the display
says.
■ Here are the other things you can program:
• Entering an Intro or Ending: press the [INTRO/
ENDING] button.
• Changing the Style Level: press <Advnc®Basic> (or
<Advnc√Basic>).
• Entering a Fill-In: press the desired Fill In button.
(By assigning other functions to the PAD buttons or
the left pedal, you can also use functions such as
“Break.”)
You can also insert and delete measures by pressing
<INS>, <DEL>, and <CLR> next to the display.
<INS>— Inserts a single blank measure at the posi-
tion of the cursor.
<Mute>
Choosing a track and pressing <Mute> switches off
playback of that track. A dotted “
❏
” appears next to
the muted track. Each press of <Mute> toggles
between Mute on and off.
<Solo>
Choose a track and press <Solo> if you want to listen
to a track without hearing the others. Each press of
<Solo> toggles between Solo on and off.
