Pressing the [SYNC START] button alone causes a straight start to occur
when the first note or chord is played. Press the [SYNC START] button and
then the appropriate [INTRO] and [MAIN/AUTO FILL] buttons for a
synchronized introduction start. The BEAT indicator will flash at the current
tempo when a synchronized start mode has been selected. The synchro start
mode can be disengaged prior to actually starting the accompaniment by
pressing the [SYNC START] button a second time.

As soon as you play any chord that the PSR-330 can “recognize” on the left-

hand section of the keyboard, the PSR-330 will automatically begin to play the
chord along with the selected rhythm and an appropriate bass line. The name of
the current chord will appear on the display. The accompaniment will continue
playing even if you release the keys (unless the Synchro Stop function is engaged
— page 24).

Select the MAIN A and B Sections as Required

The MAIN A and MAIN B sections can be selected at any time during playback

by pressing the corresponding button. Whenever you press the MAIN/AUTO
FILL [A] or [B] button during playback, the PSR-330 will generate an appropriate
“fill-in” (one of four types: AA, AB, BA, and BB) which will smoothly connect
the current section to the selected section — even if it is the same section. For
