The Style type and its defining characteristics are indicated above the Style name. There are various Style
characteristics; however, only the DJ Style (shown as “DJ” in the display) is covered here. For information on the
other characteristics, refer to the Reference Manual on the website.

DJ Styles
These Styles can be selected from the category called up via the [DANCE & R&B] button. These contain their own
special chord progressions, so you can add chord changes to your performance simply by changing the root key.
Keep in mind, however, that you cannot specify the chord type, such as major and minor, when using the DJ Styles.
The Multi Pad (page 74) data in the “DJ Phrase” folder are specially created for these Styles. You can call up the
suitable Multi Pads by using the One Touch Setting function (page 50).

NOTE

Although the chords will be detected
according to the notes you play in the
left hand section by default, you can
change the chord detection area from
the left hand section to the right hand
section. For details, refer to page 56.
