Adding an ending
1
While automatic accompaniment 
is playing, press the [INTRO/
ENDING 1] switch or the 
[INTRO/ENDING 2] switch
The ending will be played, and then the 
accompaniment will stop automatically.
The switch indicator of the selected ending 
will continue blinking until the playback 
switches to that ending. After the ending 
has begun, the indicator will be lit until 
playback ends. After the ending, automatic 
accompaniment will stop automatically.
To cancel the ending before it is finished
If you change the setting of the “Varia-
tion” Cell or press the [FILL 1, 2] switch 
after the accompaniment has switched to 
the ending, the accompaniment will 
move to the selected variation or fill from 
the next beat or the next measure, and 
automatic accompaniment will continue
Adding a fill
1
While automatic accompaniment 
is playing, press the [FILL 1] 
switch or [FILL 2] switch
A fill-in will be inserted. When the fill 
ends, the accompaniment will switch to 
the variation you specified in the 
“AfterFill1” or “AfterFill2” cell, just as for 
the intro.
The timing at which the accompaniment 
changes from the variation to the fill is 
adjusted automatically to create a natural 
transition. However, depending on the timing 
at which you press the switch, only the latter 
part may be played, so it is important to pay 
attention to the timing.

matic accompaniment will change when fill
