Glossary
 
Arrangement
 
This refers to changes that have been made in an original 
tune, by adding a new accompaniment or by changing the 
instruments used.
 
Automatic Accompaniment
 
Automatic Accompaniment is Automatic Accompaniment when 
just a few keys in the lower section of the keyboard are 
pressed to specify the chord. 
 
Basic Chord
 
This refers to the most commonly used types of chord, which 
are generally the following six types: major chords, minor 
chords, minor seventh chords, minor seventh (5) chords, 
dominant seventh chords, and diminished seventh chords.
 
Chord
 
Notes of two or more pitches sounded simultaneously. Chords 
consisting of three notes are called “triads,” and are the most 
basic type of chord.
 
Ending
 
This is the last part of the accompaniment. When you stop 
playing the Automatic Accompaniment, the ATELIER plays an 
Ending appropriate for the Rhythm. 
 
Glide
 
An effect that temporarily lowers the pitch and then gradually 
returns it to normal.
 
Intro
 
This is the introductory portion of an Automatic 
Accompaniment performance. When Automatic 
Accompaniment begins, the ATELIER can add an appropriate 
intro for each Rhythm.
 
Inversion
 
When the lowest note of a chord is the root, the chord is said 
to be in “root position.” In contrast, forms of a chord in which 
other notes are the lowest pitch are called “inversions.”
 
Mute
 
To silence a sound. The ATELIER provides a Track Mute 
function that allows you to turn off the track button indicator of 
a track on which music data has been recorded, so that the 
corresponding track will temporarily be silenced.
 
Panel Settings
 
Settings such as sound selections, tempo, Rotary fast/slow.
 
Registration
 
A set of data that specifies the state of the instrument when 
performing, including sounds and panel settings.
 
Reverb
 
An effect that simulates the reverberation of a room or concert 
hall.
 
Root Note
 
The root note is the basis of a chord. All chords are built on a 
root note, which is the part of the chord name given in 
uppercase letters.
 
Rotary
 
An effect which simulates the modulation given to the sound 
when a rotating speaker is used. The Rotary effect produces 
two types of modulation: fast or slow.
 
Sound Generator
 
This is the section that produces the sound. The ATELIER series 
uses a sound generator that is compatible with GM2/GS.
 
Split
 
A function which allows the keyboard to be divided into two 
or more areas, and a different sound assigned to each area. 
The point at which the keyboard is divided is called the “Split 
Point.”
 
Sustain
 
An effect that adds a decay to each note. The ATELIER allows 
sustain to be applied to the voices of the upper part, lower 
part, and pedal part.
 
Voice
 
The ATELIER is able to produce the sounds of various 
instruments. These sounds are called “Voices.”
