Play with a Style
PSR-E233/YPT-230 Owner’s Manual
18
The instrument features a wide variety of Style “Sections” (patterns) that allow you to vary the
arrangement of the accompaniment to match the Song you are playing.
Pattern Variation (Sections)
Adding an Intro
Pressing the [INTRO/ENDING/rit.] button before playing back the
Style automatically adds a short introduction before starting the
actual (Main) rhythm.
When the intro finishes playing, Style playback shifts to the Main
Section.
Adding an Ending
Press the [INTRO/ENDING/rit.] button to begin playing an ending
Section. Playback will stop when the ending has played all the way
through.
If you press the [INTRO/ENDING/rit.] button a second time (while
the ending is playing) the ending will play ritardando (the tempo will
gradually get slower).
Switching Main Sections
There are two variations on the basic pattern
(A and B).
This switches between the Main A and Main B
Sections, automatically playing a fill-in pattern
to smoothly lead into the next Section.
You can also select either the Main A or B
Section to start by pressing the [MAIN/AUTO
FILL] button before starting the Style.
Adding a Fill-in
A Fill-in pattern is automatically added before
changing to section A or B.
