About Auto Harmonize notes and tones

The notes you play on the keyboard are called “melody notes,” while

the notes added to the melody by Auto Harmonize is called the “har-

monize notes.” Auto Harmonize normally uses the tone you selected

for the melody notes as the tone for the harmonize notes, but you can

use the Mixer (page E-28) to specify a different tone for the harmo-

nize notes.

The harmonize note tone is assigned to Mixer Channel 2, so change

Channel 2 to the tone you want to use for the harmonize notes.

In addition to the tone, you can also use the Mixer to change a num-

ber of other parameters, such as volume balance. See “Changing the

Parameters of a Channel” on page E-30 for details on these proce-

dures.

NOTES

Using Free Session

This keyboard comes pre-programmed with a collection of “Free Ses-

sions,” which are Auto Accompaniments that automatically match

chord progression, tone, tempo and other settings to the currently

selected rhythm pattern. Starting a Free Session causes the entire key-

board to become a melody keyboard for play along with the repeat-

ing chord progression of the Free Session.

Pre-programmed settings in accordance with the selected rhythm

pattern are used whenever Free Session is turned on.

• Keyboard tone and volume

• Layer or Auto Harmonize on/off

tone and volume (when harmonize is turned on).

sion is turned on.

Accompaniment to match the selected rhythm.

sion.

NOTES

❚

• The default root note of the first chord is C (See “Free Session Chord

Progression Chart” on page A-2 for details). You can change to a differ-

ent root by pressing the corresponding key within the accompaniment

keyboard instead of START/STOP in the above procedure.

• You can also use the INTRO, NORMAL/FILL-IN, VARIATION/FILL-IN,

and SYNCHRO/ENDING buttons while Free Session accompaniment

is playing.

• Tone and tempo settings can be changed while a Free Session Auto

Accompaniment is playing. The rhythm pattern can also be changed

while a Free Session Auto Accompaniment is playing, but the chord

progression does not change in this case unless you stop Auto Accom-

paniment and restart it.

• You must stop the Auto Accompaniment to change the root note of the

first chord.

• Changing to a rhythm pattern with a different meter can affect chord

change timing.
