16: ACCOMPANIMENT VOLUME CONTROL
This volume control adjusts the volume of the accompaniment. The slider allows
the user to control the balance of the voices and the accompaniment. The com-
bined “mixed” volume is then adjusted by either the left or right volume controls,
depending on the mode in use, to achieve the desired overall volume.
17: STYLE SELECTION
There are 15 styles and an ASSIGN button on the front panel. Style choices are
available in all modes. Note that in Split or Ensemble mode it is not possible for
two students to each select a different style.
Additional styles can be sent to the ASSIGN button via the software.
18: METRONOME
The METRONOME button provides a steady beat with tempo depending on se-
lected style. To activate the metronome, push the METRONOME button, and then
adjust the TEMPO buttons to select the desired tempo. Press the METRONOME or
STOP button to stop the metronome.
19: RECORDING AND PLAYBACK
A short performance can be recorded into the keyboard memory, stored, and
played back. It is not possible to overdub or edit a recording, nor will a recording
be retained if the keyboard is turned off. Each time the record function is used,
the previous recording will be erased. A recording can be saved and stored in
the computer by using the Music In Education software (see “Software Guide” for
more details).
TO RECORD MELODY/ACCOMPANIMENT
Press MELODY REC/ ACCOMP REC. The Beat light will flash in time with the tempo and you will hear a steady
beat. The keyboard does not begin recording until you begin to play.
Select the desired accompaniment. The preselected tempo of this rhythm will appear in the LED window.
Adjust the tempo.
To start the rhythm, either begin playing, or press the START button if you wish an introductory accompani-
ment to precede your playing. Begin playing. After you begin playing, the BAR light will indicate measures.
To stop recording, press the STOP or the MELODY REC/ ACCOMP REC button.
To loop the recording, press PLAY at the end of the pattern in tempo before pressing STOP.
To playback your recording press the PLAY button. To stop your playback, press the STOP button.
To clear your recording, press the MELODY REC and the ACCOMP REC buttons at the same time and hold
them both down for approximately six seconds. (The metronome will click ONCE, the letters ‘Clr’ will flash in
the LED and finally, the tempo will reappear – at this point, release the two buttons.)
