Style Sections
Each style in the auto accompaniment is made up of “sections.” Since each section is a rhythmic variation of the basic
style, you can use them to add spice to your performance and mix up the beats — while you’re playing. Intros, Endings,
Main patterns, and Breaks — they’re all here, giving you the dynamic elements you need to create professional-
sounding arrangements.
1 - 4
Use the same operations as in “Playing a style” on pages 28 and 29.
5
Press the [INTRO] button.
6
As soon as you play a chord with your left hand, the Intro starts.
For this example, play a C major chord (as shown below).
When the playback of the intro is finished, it automatically leads into main section.
7
Press any of the MAIN [A] to [D] buttons or [BREAK] button
as desired. (See the Accompaniment Structure on the next
page.)
Embellish and enhance your melodies — with the automatic Harmony and Echo effects
This powerful performance feature lets you automatically add harmony notes to the melodies you play with your
right hand — based on the chords you play with your left. Tremolo, Echo, and other effects are available, too.
1 Turn HARMONY/ECHO on.
2 Turn ACMP on (page 28).
3 Play a chord with your left hand and play some notes in the right-hand range of the
keyboard.
The CVP-209/207 has various Harmony/Echo types (page 143).
The Harmony/Echo type may change according to the selected MAIN voice.
• Harmony/Echo is just one of the many Voice Effects you can use. Try out some of
the other effects and see how they can enhance your performance (page 58).
INTRO This is used for the beginning of the song. When the intro finishes playing, accompaniment shifts to the
main section.
MAIN This is used for playing the main part of the song. It plays an accompaniment pattern of several measures,
and repeats indefinitely until another section’s button is pressed.
BREAK This lets you add dynamic variations and breaks in the rhythm of the accompaniment, to make your
performance sound even more professional.
ENDING This is used for the ending of the song. When the ending is finished, the auto accompaniment stops
automatically.
