Cautions for safest use of this unit
Installation location
1. A well-ventilated place.
Take care not to use this unit in a place where it
will not receive sufficient ventilation, and not to
permit the ventilation holes to be covered by curtains, or any similar materials.
2. Place away from direct sunlight and excessive
heat from heating equipment.
3. A place where humidity, vibration and dust are
minimized.
Power source
1. Be sure the line voltage selector is in accord-
ance with local voltage in your area before connecting the plug to the socket.
2. DC power cannot be used.
Handling the power cord
1. Never touch the power cord, or its plug, with wet
hands.
2. Don’t pull the power cord.
Metal items inside the unit may result in electric shock or damage.
Do not permit metal articles to get inside the unit.
Be especially careful with regard to this point if
children are near this unit. They should be warned
never to try to put anything inside.
If, nevertheless, some such article does get inside,
disconnect the power cord plug from the electrical
outlet, and contact the store where the unit was
purchased.
If water gets into the unit
Disconnect the power cord plug from the electrical
outlet, and contact the store where it was purchased.
As a precaution, it is suggested that flower vases
and other containers which hold liquids not be
placed on the top of this unit.
If operation seems abnormal
Immediately turn off the power, disconnect the
power cord plug from the electrical outlet, and contact the store where it was purchased.
Discontinue using the unit at once. Failure to do so
may result in additional damage or some other unexpected damage or accident.
• Because the power source is located inside the
unit, it is normal for the cabinet to become warm.
A word about the power cord
If the power cord is scarred, is partially cut or
broken, or has a bad contact, it may cause a fire or
serious electrical shock if used. NEVER use a damaged power cord for any appliance. Moreover, the
power cord should never be forcibly bent.
Don’t touch the inside parts of this
unit.
Some places inside this unit have high voltage
potential. Never try to remove the top or back
panels of this unit, or to touch inside parts by hand
or with tools.
Contact someone who is qualified in order to inspect the inside, or to replace a fuse, if such becomes necessary. Never attempt to do these things
yourself.
Maintenance
The following suggestions will assist you in keeping the unit in top condition.
• Be sure to switch the instrument off after use,
and do not switch the unit on and off in quick
succession, as this places an undue load on the
electronic components.
• To keep the luster of the surface and buttons,
simply use a clean, damp cloth; polish with a
soft, dry cloth. Polish may be used but do not
use thinners or petro-chemical-based polishes.
• A wax-based polish may be used on the cabinet,
although you will find that rubbing with a soft
cloth will suffice.
This product may receive radio interference
caused by mobile telephones during use. If such
interference is apparent, please increase separation between the product and the mobile telephone.

TECHNI-CHORD turns your single note melodies into full chords and offers you a choice of different
types from a simple duet which adds one harmony note to your melody note, to big band reeds which
adds four harmony notes to your melody note. If TECHNI-CHORD is part of a ONE TOUCH PLAY or
MUSIC STYLIST registration, a suitable TECHNI-CHORD type will be selected automatically.
Example:
Left hand (chord)
CF GC
Right hand (melody)
1. Split the keyboard into left and right sections.
2. Press the TECHNI-CHORD button to turn it
on.
Sounds and effects
TECHNI-CHORD
Type setting
1. Press and hold the TECHNI-CHORD button
for a few seconds.
• The display looks similar to the following.
3. Play the keyboard.
• The melody you play with your right hand is
automatically played in chords which are
based on the chords you play with your left
hand.
• This effect does not work for a part for which
SOLO has been turned on.
• This feature is very effective when used with
the AUTO PLAY CHORD.
ORCHESTRATOR
You can specify which part is used for the harmony tones. Your TECHNI-CHORD performance
is enhanced by selecting harmony sounds different from the sounds you play and the sounds produced by the automatic accompaniment.
Use the ∧ and ∨ buttons to select the part for
the harmony notes.
• If CONDUCTOR is selected, the harmony
notes are produced in the sounds of the part
which is currently selected in the CONDUC-TOR (RIGHT 1, RIGHT 2). In other words, the
harmony notes are produced in the same
sound as the melody notes. If both RIGHT 1
and RIGHT 2 are on, the harmony notes are
produced in the sound of the RIGHT 1 part.
2. Use the , ▲, ▼, buttons to select the
▲
▼
harmony style.
• When the OCTAVE, HARD ROCK or FANFARE style is selected, the TECHNI-CHORD
functions even when the keyboard is not split.
• In the case of EASY RECORD (see page 79),
when set to CONDUCTOR or a part other than
PART 4, the TECHNI-CHORD sound is not
recorded; so when you use EASY RECORD,
please set to one or the other.

Overview of rhythm performance
An explanation follows of the terms related to this instrument’s rhythm performance.
Rhythm and accompaniment pattern
Each rhythm is comprised of not only a DRUMS
pattern, but also of accompaniment patterns
called BASS and ACCOMP. The combination
of all of these is the rhythm.
• The accompaniment pattern sounds when
you perform using the AUTO PLAY CHORD
(APC). (Refer to page 53.)
Rhythm and Style
One rhythm of this instrument is comprised of
four VARIATION patterns, and for each one the
optimum sounds and effects are set.
All of these together comprise one STYLE.

Custom Style
You can create your own styles, load styles from
a disk/SD card, and store them in a special area
of the memory called CUSTOM. The stored
style is called the CUSTOM STYLE.
Create a CUSTOM STYLE
Here is the procedure to create a new style.
1. Store the sound and effect settings in bank
A, B or C of the PANEL MEMORY (1 – 4).
(Refer to page 65.)
• You may also store the automatic settings,
such as MUSIC STYLIST settings.
2. Create a rhythm in MEMORY A, B or C of
the COMPOSER. (Refer to page 108.)
• The banks (A, B, C) are linked, so use them
together. For example, if you are using bank
A of the PANEL MEMORY, then create the
rhythm in MEMORY A of the COMPOSER as
well.
• You may also use the COPY function to copy
a favorite preset rhythm.
• Make the VARIATION number correspond to
the PANEL MEMORY number (1 to 4) when
you create your rhythm.
3. Use CUSTOM STYLE COPY to copy the
style to the CUSTOM area.

Simply by playing a chord on the keyboard, the AUTO PLAY CHORD function automatically plays an
accompaniment pattern which matches perfectly the selected rhythm. With a real accompaniment as a
background, you can concentrate on playing the melody.
How the AUTO PLAY CHORD works
When an AUTO PLAY CHORD mode is selected,
an automatic accompaniment which matches the
rhythm you have chosen is played in the chord

which you specify with your left hand. The melody
is played with your right hand.
• The accompaniment pattern of the AUTO
PLAY CHORD is composed of 8 parts:
DRUMS 1, 2, BASS, ACCOMP 1– 5.
• The volume of each part can be adjusted with
the buttons below the display. (Refer to page

• If the CHORD FINDER procedure is used, you
can see the types of chords that can be
specified and the keys you press to play them.
(Refer to page 57.)
Play the root note plus a
white key to the left of it.
In the PIANIST mode, the entire keyboard can

When the MEMORY button is ON, even when
the keys are released, the chord is memorized
and the accompaniment continues to play until
you specify another chord.
ON BASS
If the ON BASS button is ON while the FINGERED or PIANIST mode is selected, the BASS
part is produced in the key of the lowest note of
the played chord, thus making it possible to play

you play a C chord by pressing the keys G, C
and E, the BASS part is produced in the key
of G.

A sequencer records your performance in a similar way to a tape recorder. This instrument’s SEQUENCER
allows you to record up to 10 performances in a variety of ways. You may want to record your entire
performance in one go (especially if you are using AUTO PLAY CHORD to provide the accompaniment),
or to build up a complex arrangement with several different parts playing together, like an orchestral
score. This instrument’s SEQUENCER has 16 tracks. This means that you can record 16 different parts.
However, you don’t have to use all 16 tracks. For some uses you may only need to use one or two
tracks. This instrument’s SEQUENCER enables you to edit your recorded performance. Unlike a tape
recorder you can change the sound or the tempo during playback, or correct wrong notes or timing
errors.
SEQUENCER features
You can change the tempo without changing the pitch
When you record your performance at a slow
tempo and play it back at a faster tempo, the pitch
stays the same.
Popular features
Simplified recording method
EASY RECORD is a feature that allows you to
bypass the more complex recording procedures
so you can record and play back your performance quickly and easily.
• You can also record an accompaniment from
Consistent sound
the AUTO PLAY CHORD.
Your performance is reproduced by a sound module as it reads digital data. So, unlike a recorded
tape, the sound never deteriorates no matter how
many times you play back your performance.
Create a one-man ensemble
Use the REALTIME RECORD function to record
your performance in up to 16 tracks and create
your own orchestra or band.
Edit your recorded performance
Comprehensive editing functions allow you to
modify your recorded performance. Data can
easily be erased, corrected or copied, providing
an especially convenient tool for creating your
original tunes.
Store individual data to create your song
For repeating patterns or those especially complicated phrases, the STEP RECORD feature is
convenient for recording the notes one-by-one.
• This method can be used to store both the
chord progression for the automatic accom-

paniment and the rhythm changes.
A recorded tape has to be rewound, but digital
action means you can return to the beginning of
your performance, or find any measure, instantly.
Memory capacity
Up to 10 songs can be stored in the
SEQUENCER. Expressed in terms of notes, the
total number of notes which can be stored in all
Sequencer
the SEQUENCER songs and tracks is about
40,000. The remaining memory available for recording is shown on the display as a percentage
(MEMORY= %).
• When “Memory full!” appears on the display,
