Kawai CP205/CP185 - Manual (Page 34)

• The CP remembers the last Style selection that you made within each category while the power
is on. When you press a STYLE button, the CP will automatically select the Style previously
chosen in the same category.
• When you switch from one Style to another while it is running, the new Style will wait until the
beginning of the next measure before it begins to play.
Fill-In and Variation
Each Style is made of four Variation patterns and four Fill-in patterns.
Fill-ins are short patterns that temporarily embellish the Style. Fill-ins can add excitement and
rhythmic change to the Style and be used as a musical lead in between the Variations. To use a Fill-
in, just press one of the FILL IN buttons. You will hear the fill-in begin playing immediately from a
musically appropriate spot.
Fill-ins can also be used as a short intro. First press the SYNC/FADE OUT button then press one of
the FILL-IN buttons to select a desired Fill-in. Press any key on the keyboard to start the style. After
the Fill-in plays, the selected Variation will play.
To select a Variation, press one of the four VARIATION buttons to select the desired Variation. The
Selected VARIATION button LED will light.
• You can set the CP to automatically play a Fill-in anytime you press a VARIATION button as you
switch from one Variation to another. Select your preferred option in the Fill-in mode. (See page
130)
Auto Accompaniment System
The Auto-accompaniment System (ACC) is a powerful feature that determines how the Styles will
interact with you as you play. The ACC System analyzes your playing and adjusts the notes the
Style plays to follow the Chords that you play on the keyboard. The ACC System is capable of
recognizing single finger as well as more complex chord voicings. The CP recognizes 61 chord
types as well as most of their inversions. (See page 196 for a chord table.) There are three modes of
key recognition—One Finger, Fingered, and Full Keyboard. Your choice of which mode to use
depends on your skill level and the selected musical style.
