The Multi Pads

The PSR-520 MULTI PADS can be used to play 84 short pre-recorded
rhythmic and melodic sequences, that can be used to add impact and
variety to your keyboard performances. Some of the pad phrases simply
play back as programmed, while others are “chord match” types which are
automatically transposed to match chords played using the PSR-520
Auto Accompaniment feature.

The PSR-520 MULTI PADS can also be used to record 16 short rhythmic
or melodic sequences, percussion fill-ins, or single percussion sounds
that can be played at any time simply by pressing the appropriate pad. The
multi pad kit numbers 22 through 25 are the area for your own creation
(user pad kits).

• See page 56 for a complete

listing of the Multi Pad
assingnments.

• The MULTI PAD function can be

quickly selected by pressing and
holding the [REC/END] button.
