[7 ]/ [8 ] STOP ACMP When [ACMP] is turned on and [SYNC START] is off, you can play chords in the chord section of the keyboard with the Style stopped, and still hear the accompaniment chord. In this condition—called “Stop Accompaniment”—any valid chord fingerings are recognized and the chord root/type are shown in the display. Here, you can determine whether the chord played in the chord section will sound or not in the Stop Accompaniment status.
Memorizing Original Settings to One Touch Setting You can memorize your original panel settings to a One Touch Setting. The newly created One Touch Setting will be saved in the USER drive or a USB flash drive as a Style, and you can call up the One Touch Setting as a part of the Style. 1 Select the desired Style to memorize your One Touch Setting. 2 Make the desired panel settings, such as those for Voices and effects. 3 Press the [MEMORY] button in the REGISTRATION MEMORY section.
Creating/Editing Styles (Style Creator) A Style is made up of the different Sections (Intro, Main, Ending, etc.) and each Section has separate channels (rhythm pattern, bass line, chord backing, multi pad, or phrase, each of which is referred to as a “Source Pattern”). With the Style Creator function, you can create an original Style by separately recording the channels, or by copying pattern data from other existing Styles.
6 Edit the already recorded channel data. • Editing the channel data on the GROOVE (page 33), and CHANNEL (page 34) pages Lets you change the rhythmic feel, quantizing and velocity, etc. • Editing the SFF parameters on the PARAMETER page (page 36) Lets you edit the SFF (Style File Format) related parameters of the already recorded channels.
3 If necessary, select a Voice then practice the rhythm pattern to be recorded. Press the [1 ] or [2 ] button (selected channel) to call up the Voice Selection display then select the desired Voice—in this case, a Drum Kit, since we'll be creating a rhythm. After selecting, press the [EXIT] button to return to the original Style Creator display. With the selected Voice, practice the rhythm pattern to be recorded. • Available Voices for recording For the RHY1 channel, all Voices can be used for recording.
7 Press the appropriate [1 ] or [2 ] button on the REC CHANNEL display to disable recording. If the REC CHANNEL display is not shown, press the [1 ](REC CH) button. 8 Save the recorded Style (see step 8 on page 27). NOTICE The created Style will be lost if you change to another Style or turn off the power to the instrument without carrying out the Save operation. Recording to the Bass, Chord 1–2, Pad and Phrase 1–2 Channels The procedure below applies to step 5 in the Basic Procedure on page 26.
Rules when recording an Intro or Ending These Sections are designed assuming that the chord is not changed during playback. This is why you need not observe the rule for Main and Fill-in Sections described above, and you can create special chord progressions when recording. However, follow the rules below since the Source Root/Chord is set to CM7. • When recording the Intro, make sure that the recorded phrase leads properly into a C scale.
Style Assembly (ASSEMBLY) This allows you to copy channel data as a Source Pattern from another preset Style to the currently created Style. Use this function if you find a favorite rhythm pattern, bass line, chord backing or phrase from another Style. The instructions below apply to step 5 of the Basic Procedure on page 26. After selecting a Section and make other settings on the BASIC page, carry out the instructions below. Call up the operation display.
Playing the Style During Style Assembly You can play back the Style while you are assembling a Style, and the playback method can be selected. In the ASSEMBLY page, use the [6 ]/[7 ] (PLAY TYPE) buttons to select the type. • SOLO: Plays back the selected channel in the ASSEMBLY page. Any channels set to REC in the RECORD display on the BASIC page are played back simultaneously. • ON: Plays back the selected channel in the ASSEMBLY page.
Editing the Rhythmic Feel (GROOVE) By changing the timing of all the notes and velocities, you can edit the rhythmic feel for each channel of the current Section selected on the BASIC page or the panel button. The instructions below apply to step 6 of the Basic Procedure on page 27. 1 2 2 1 Styles 1 In the GROOVE page, use the Cursor buttons [][] to select the edit menu, then edit the data by using the [1 ]–[7 ] buttons.

Eighth notes with swing Sixteenth notes with swing 2 VELOCITY CHANGE Boosts or cuts the velocity of all notes in the specified channel, according to the percentage specified here.
Making Style File Format Settings (PARAMETER) The Style File Format (SFF) combines all of Yamaha’s auto accompaniment (Style playback) know-how into a single unified format. Setting the SFF related parameters determines how the original notes are converted to the actual sounded notes based on the chord you specify in the Chord area of the keyboard. The conversion flow is shown below. Source Pattern settings • Source Root • Source Chord Determines what key and what chord type are used for playing.
2 Press the [2 ] (CHANNEL) button to select the channel to be edited. The selected channel is shown at the upper left of the display. 3 Use the [3 ]–[7 ] buttons to edit the data. For details on editable parameters, see pages 37–39. 4 Save the edited Style (see step 8 on page 27). NOTICE The edited Style will be lost if you change to another Style or turn off the power to the instrument without carrying out the Save operation.
NTR (Note Transposition Rule) ROOT TRANS (Root Transpose) ROOT FIXED GUITAR When the root note is transposed, the interval between notes is maintained. For example, the notes C3, E3 and G3 in the key of C become F3, A3 and C4 when they are transposed to F. Use this setting for channels that contain melody lines. The note is kept as close as possible to the previous note range. For example, the notes C3, E3 and G3 in the key of C become C3, F3 and A3 when they are transposed to F.
When NTR is set to GUITAR ALL-PURPOSE This table covers both stroke- and arpeggio-played sounds. STROKE Suitable for strumming sounds of the guitar. Some notes may sound as if they are muted—this is the normal condition when chords are played on guitar by strumming. ARPEGGIO Suitable for arpeggio-played sound of the guitar, resulting in beautiful fournote arpeggio sounds. 3 HIGH KEY / NOTE LIMIT The settings here adjust the Octave of the notes converted from the original ones through NTT and NTR.
Editing the Rhythm Part of a Style (Drum Setup) The Drum Setup function allows you to edit the rhythm part of the current Style, such as changing the drum instruments and make various settings.
