Music Styles and Automatic Accompaniment
What is Automatic Accompaniment?
Press the One Touch Program [Arranger] button for Automatic Accompaniment’s

performing alone!
What Are Music Styles?
Accompaniment patterns in various musical genres are called “Music Styles.”
There are many different kinds of music around the world, and each has its own
unique features. What gives jazz or classical music their unmistakable sounds are a
unique combination of elements like instrumentation, melody, and phrasing, which
interact to create the musical character.
Elements of Music Styles
A Music Style consists of a set of six sections called “divisions.”
In addition, the accompaniment Styles are composed of up to a maximum of eight
performance parts: “Rhythm,” “Bass,” “Accompaniment 1,” “Accompaniment 2,”
“Accompaniment 3,” “Accompaniment 4,” “Accompaniment 5,” and
“Accompaniment 6.”
