Auto Accompaniment

● Starting the Accompaniment with an Introduction .............................................................................

Any of the accompaniment styles can be started with an appropriate intro-

duction by pressing the [INTRO] button and then the [START/STOP] button.

If you press the [SYNC-START/STOP] button and then the [INTRO] button,

the accompaniment will start from the introduction as soon as a chord is de-

tected in the Auto Accompaniment section of the keyboard.

Once the [INTRO] button is pressed, the [INTRO] indicator will be lit

continuously and the VARIATION [A] or [B] indicator will flash to indicate

which section will play when the introduction has finished. You can change the

“destination” section by pressing the VARIATION [A] or [B] button while its

indicator is flashing. When the introduction ends, the [INTRO] indicator will

go out and the [A] or [B] indicator will light continuously. The introductions

for the VARIATION [A] and [B] sections are different. The A intro has no

chord progression while the B intro has its own chord progression. The actual

format of the intro, however, depends on the selected style. Although it is

generally not advisable to change chords manually while the B intro is playing,

the A intro has no progression of its own so you can play your own chords as

required.

NOTES

• It is possible to start the accompaniment from any section — even the

ending — by pressing the corresponding button prior to pressing the

[START/STOP] button. The destination MAIN [A] or [B] section can be

selected as described above.

• The [INTRO] button can be used to select the introduction pattern even

while the accompaniment is playing.

● Adding Fill-ins & Breaks ........................................................................................................................

The PSR-1700 and PSR-2700 provide two types of fill-ins that can be used

as musical transitions between sections of a song or simply to add variety

where required. Press the [FILL IN 1] button at any time while the accompani-

ment is playing to add a one-measure fill-in and or return to the current MAIN

section, or press the [FILL IN 2] button to add a one-measure fill-in and go to

the other MAIN section. Although there are two FILL IN buttons there are

actually four fill-ins per style: FILL IN 1 for the MAIN [A] section, FILL IN 1

for the MAIN [B] section, FILL IN 2 for the transition MAIN [A] to [B], and

FILL IN 2 for the transition MAIN [B] to [A].

While the fill-ins are one measure long, the BREAK is two measures. The

first measure is similar to a fill-in while the second measure is an actual rhyth-

mic break — a thinner arrangement with drums and percussion predominating.

Like the fill-ins, there are actually two BREAK patterns — one for the MAIN

[A] section and one for the MAIN [B] section.

FILL IN 1 FILL IN 2

Each accompaniment style has two main sections — [A] and [B]. These are

variations of the same musical style. If the VARIATION [A] or [B] button is

pressed while the accompaniment is playing, the corresponding section will

begin from the top of the next measure. You can also select [A] or [B] before

starting the accompaniment.

NOTES

• The Main [A] section is automatically selected whenever the power switch

is turned on (the VARIATION [A] indicator will be lit).
