Chapter 2 Using Rhythm Performance
Adding Variety to the Rhythm or 
Automatic Accompaniment
You can add variety to the rhythm or automatic accompaniment by 
changing the rhythm pattern of the rhythm or the arrangement of the 
automatic accompaniment, or by inserting a break (i.e., stopping the rhythm 
for one measure).

Changing the Arrangement of the 
Accompaniment (Style Orchestrator)
You can change the arrangement of the accompaniment while the rhythm is 
playing or stopped. This function is called “Style Orchestrator.” For each 
rhythm, there are four types of arrangement for the accompaniment.
The following buttons are called Style Orchestrator buttons.

A Fill In is a short phrase that is inserted at a break in the melody or at a 
point where the character of the song changes (between Chorus’s or Verses).
The functions of the [Start/
Stop] button, the [To 
Variation] button, the [To 
Original] button, and

assigned to the foot 
switches located on each
