Fill Mode Meaning

Off The same Variation, playing before selecting a Fill, will be selected again.

V1&V2 … V3&V4 The speciﬁed Variations will be alternatively selected, when one of them

is selected. For example, with the V1&V2 option, if Variation 1 is selected,

Variation 1 and Variation 2 will be alternatively selected after the end of

the Fill.

Var.Up/Var.Down The next higher/lower numbered Variation is selected, in cycle. After

Variation 4, an Up command will select Variation 1. After Variation 1, a

Down command will select Variation 4.

Var.Inc/Var.Dec The next higher/lower numbered Variation is selected. When Variation 4

is reached, an Inc command will select Variation 4 again. When Variation

1 is reached, a Dec command will select Variation 1 again.

To Var.1 … To Var.4 Fill to Variation (->1, ->2, ->3, ->4) automatically selects one of the four

available Style Variations at the end of the ﬁll.

Auto Fill and Fill Mode

Auto Fill and Fill Mode can interact, by doing strictly related things:

▪ When the Auto Fill is enabled (AUTO FILL indicator on), you can

choose a Variation by pressing one of the VARIATION buttons. This

will automatically select a Fill, then the chosen Variation. This is the

easiest way to select the Variation best ﬁtting the next song section,

and let the instrument automatically choose a Fill for you.

▪ When the Fill Mode is programmed in a Style or SongBook Entry, you

can choose a Fill or Break by pressing one of the FILL or BREAK but-

tons. The chosen Fill or Break will be played back, then the programmed

Variation will be automatically selected. This is a sophisticated way of

creating complex sequences of Fills and Variations.

Please note that, while Auto Fill is a Global setting, Fill Mode is tied to

a Style or SongBook Entry.

Turning the key range on/off and setting the wrap-around point

Accompaniment Sounds, like the acoustic instruments they imitate, sound

better in their natural range. When the accompaniment pattern exceeds this

range, or goes over the wrap-around point, it can be transposed to fall in the

best range.
