Playing Styles

The PSR-2100/1100 has a huge variety of musical “styles” that you can call upon to back up your
own performance. They give you anything from a simple, yet effective piano backing or percussion
accompaniment to a full band or orchestra.

Turn ACMP on.
The specified left-hand section of the keyboard becomes the “Auto Accompaniment” section, and chords
