Pattern Sequencer
733A-E-050A
The Pattern Sequencer lets you modify the keyboard’s 120 built-in
Auto Accompaniment patterns or create your own original pattern
from scratch.
Pattern Sequencer Basics
Each Auto Accompaniment pattern is actually a group of six differ-
ent elements named: normal, intro, variation, normal fill in, varia-
tion fill in, and ending. Each element is made up of five parts, named:
Rhythm, Bass, Chord 1, Chord 2, and Chord 3. The following table
shows the makeup of each element.
Pattern Sequencer Recording Contents
The Pattern Sequencer lets you record notes for each of the parts that
makes up an element. You can alter any of the elements of a built-in
Auto Accompaniment, or you can create one or more of your own
original elements from scratch.
Content that can be recorded to each part within each
element using real-time recording
• Notes played on the keyboard
• PITCH BEND wheel operation (Bend range fixed at 2 for user pat-
tern creation)
• MODULATION wheel operation
• Pedal operation (when an optional pedal is connected)
Content that can be recorded once for each pattern
• Tempo
• Beat (Only when work area is empty.)
Content that can be recorded to each element
• Number of measures
The number of measures for Intro, Normal, Variation, and Ending
can specified only when recording to a blank element. Fill-in is
always one measure long, and cannot be changed.
• Fill-in (Cannot change inside one measure.)
• Original key
