Play along with the style.
Play a melody with right hand while playing cords in the accompaniment range
of the keyboard with your left hand. The [START/STOP] button will flash at the

ers).
Each style has two main patterns – MAIN A and MAIN B.
If you press the [MAIN/AUTO FILL] button during playback a fill-in will play
and then playback will switch to the other MAIN pattern.
Press the [INTRO/ENDING/rit.] button to end.
Style playback will stop after an appropriate ending.

mony type by following the procedure outlined below. The effect and operation of each harmony type is different –
refer to the Harmony Type List on page 104 for details.
Press the [HARMONY] button.
