These types only sound when chords are played in the auto accompaniment section of the keyboard. Types 6 - 26 are rhythm-based effects and add embellishments or delayed repeats in time with the auto accompaniment. These types sound whether the auto accompaniment is on or not; however, the actual speed of the effect depends on the Tempo setting (page 40). The individual note values in each type let you synchronize the effect precisely to the rhythm. Triplet settings are also available: 1/6 = quarter-note triplets, 1/12 = eighth-note triplets, 1/24 = sixteenthnote triplets. · The Trill effect Types (6 - 12) create two-note trills (alternating notes) when two notes are held. · The Tremolo effect Types (13 - 19) repeat all held notes (up to four). · The Echo effect Types (20 - 26) create delayed repeats of each note played. 33 Auto Accompaniment The PSR-GX76 provides dynamic rhythm/accompaniment patterns -- as well as voice settings appropriate for each pattern -- for various popular music styles. A total of 100 different styles are available, in several different categories. Each style is made up of separate "sections" -- Intro, Main A and B, and Ending -- letting you call up different accompaniment sections as you perform. The auto accompaniment features that are built into the rhythms add the excitement of instrumental backing to your performance, letting you control the accompaniment by the chords you play. In effect, this gives you a "split keyboard, " with bass and chords in the left hand and the normally selected voice in the right. 4 Stop the accompaniment. You can do this in one of three ways: s Pressing the [START/STOP] button The rhythm/accompaniment stops playing immediately. s Pressing the [SYNC START] button This immediately stops the accompaniment and automatically enables Sync Start, letting you re-start the accompaniment by simply playing a chord or key in the auto accompaniment section of the keyboard. · To have the Ending section gradually slow down (ritardando) as it is playing, press the [INTRO/ ENDING] button twice quickly. 38 Auto Accompaniment Sync Stop This convenient feature lets you stop (or pause) the auto accompaniment by releasing your fingers from the auto accompaniment section of the keyboard. This is ideal for putting dynamic breaks in your performance -- for example, stopping the rhythm and accompaniment briefly while you play a melodic break or solo with your right hand. 1 Press the [SYNC STOP] button. Setting Sync Stop to on before starting the auto accompaniment automatically sets Sync Start to on as well, letting you immediately start the accompaniment by playing the keyboard. Indicates that Sync Stop is on. 2 3 Play a chord on the keyboard (in the auto accompaniment section of the keyboard). The auto accompaniment starts as soon as you play a chord. Stop the auto accompaniment by releasing the chord. 4 To start the auto accompaniment again, play a chord. To turn Sync Stop off, press the [SYNC STOP] button again. To stop the auto accompaniment completely, press the [START/STOP] button. 39 Auto Accompaniment Changing the Tempo The tempo of style playback can be adjusted over a range of 32 - 280 bpm (beats per minute). · When accompaniment playback is stopped and a different style is selected, the tempo returns to the default setting of the new style. When switching styles during playback, the last tempo setting is maintained. (This allows you to keep the same tempo, even when changing styles. ) 1 Call up the Tempo setting. Press the [TEMPO/TAP] button. Current Tempo value 120 TEMPO Restoring the Default Tempo Value Each song and style has been given a default or standard Tempo setting. If you've changed the Tempo, you can instantly restore the default setting by pressing both [+]/[-] buttons simultaneously (when Tempo is selected). 2 Change the value. Use the numeric keypad to set the desired Tempo value, or use the [+]/[-] buttons to increase or decrease the value. · You can also use the convenient Tap Tempo function to change the tempo by "tapping" a new one in real time. (See page 36. ) Also, the tempo of a style returns to the default setting when selecting a different style. (The set tempo remains, however, when switching styles during playback. ) Accompaniment Sections (Main A/B and Fill-ins) While the accompaniment is playing, you can add variation in the rhythm/accompaniment by pressing the [MAIN/AUTO FILL] button. This switches between the Main A and Main B sections, automatically playing a fill-in pattern to smoothly lead into the next section. For example, if the Main A section is currently playing, pressing this button automatically plays a fill-in pattern, followed by the Main B section.
