About Accompaniment Program Recording
— Sections, Parts and Measures
Before going on to record a User Style in Accompaniment Program, you should understand a little
about the elements that make up a User Style. Each Style can have up to five “sections”: Intro,
Main A, Main B, Fill, and Ending. Generally, these sections should be stylistically similar. Each
of these sections is made up of up to eight different instrumental “parts”: Rhythm 1 & 2, Bass,
Chord 1 & 2, Pad, and Phrase 1 & 2. Finally, the length of each section is expressed in
“measures.” A section can be up to eight measures long (with the exception of Fill, which can
only be one measure).
