Using the Accompaniment section
The SP-500 contains 217 “Rhythm Styles” organized into ten groups (8/16 BEAT, DANCE, LATIN, etc.). Each ‘Rhythm Style’
consists of six parts (tracks), four variations, two Intro/endings, and two fills. When using the Accompaniment feature, you can simply
play a chord on the keyboard, and accompaniment parts appropriate for that chord and style will be added automatically. Let’s try it:
1. Press the [ACC] key so it is lit
Ä
ÄÄ
Ä select “Fingered 1” as the chord input method by touching the “Fingered 1” radio button
on the screen (See page 42 of the Owner’s Manual for explanations of chord input methods)
Ä
ÄÄ
Ä Touch the “After Fill1” cell
and select Var+ using the DIAL
Ä
ÄÄ
ÄPress one of the RHYTHM STYLE GROUP keys Ä
ÄÄ
Ä Select a “rhythm style” from the
group by using the [<-PAGE->] keys and touching the style name on the screen
Ä
ÄÄ
Ä Press [EXIT].
2. Play a chord on the keyboard below the split point (G3 is the default). The chord name is displayed in the lower left corner
of the screen. When you press the [START/STOP] key, the accompaniment will start with an INTRO (indicated by the lit
INTRO/ENDING [1] key) then lead into “Variation 1” of the selected style.
3. Adjust the tempo by pressing the TEMPO [DOWN] or [UP] keys or “tap” the tempo by pressing the [TAP] key at the
desired tempo. (The tempo is displayed in the upper left corner of the screen)
Ä
ÄÄ
Ä Play along with the accompaniment! While
playing, add a Fill by pressing the FILL [1] key. Each time FILL [1] is pressed, the Accompaniment will advance to the next
Variation after the Fill has played
Ä
ÄÄ
ÄPress [START/STOP] to stop the accompaniment or Press the INTRO/ENDING [1] or
[2] key to play an ending.
4. Press the [MIXER] key. The “Mixer” page will appear on the screen. Here you can adjust the volume of the
accompaniment parts by touching the “Vol” cell for each part and rotating the DIAL. You can also mute (Silence) a part by
touching the check box to the left of the Part name.
! When you select a Rhythm Style with the [SINGLE TOUCH] key on, a sound and automatic accompaniment settings
suitable for that style will automatically be selected. When the [SMALL ACC] key is on, the accompaniment will have fewer
parts (The Acc1 and Acc3 parts will automatically be muted).
! For more in-depth information on the Accompaniment features, including creating custom Rhythm Styles, see pages 37-
48 of the Owner’s Manual.
