There are eight Arranger parts: A.DRUMS (the drums), 
A.BASS (the bass) and ACCOMP 1~6 (the melodic 
accompaniment parts).
(5) Set the desired value with the [DATA÷ENTRY] dial or 
the [DEC]/[INC] buttons.
You can specify positive and negative sensitivity val-
ues. Positive values mean that the volume of the part 
in question increases when you strike the chord rec-
ognition area keys harder, while negative values 
mean that the volume of the selected Arranger part 
increases as your velocity becomes softer. 
You could use extreme positive/negative ACCOMP 
pairs (i.e. “127” and “–127”) to alternate between 
those two lines simply by varying your velocity. One 
part would then only be audible when you strike the 
keys softly, while the other would only be triggered 
by high velocity values.
Choose “0” for parts whose volume should not be 
affected by your velocity values.
(6) Press the [CLOSE] field to return to the ARRANGER 
CHORD page.
(7) Press the [EXIT] button to return to the main page.
Tempo-related settings (Arranger 
Options)
The G-70 provides two parameters that allow you to 
“play” with the Style tempo:
(1) Press the [MENU] button.
(2) Press the [ARRANGER¥SETTING] field, followed by 
the [ARRANGER¥OPTIONS] field.
Style Tempo
Let us briefly summarize everything that has already 
been said about the tempo:
• Each Music Style has a preset tempo that is recalled 
whenever you select that Style or when you take 
advantage of the One Touch function (page 78). The 
One Touch function, however, allows you to filter the 
tempo setting (by activating [TEMPO], which means 
that the preset tempo is no longer loaded automati-
cally).
• On the other hand, you are free to change a Music 
Style’s tempo any time. See “Changing the tempo” on 
p. 28. That value can be written to a User Program 
and will then be set every time you select that User 
Program.
• The Style (and also song) tempo is displayed on the 
main page.
