That Make Up a Song

A QY8 “SONG” consists of two main sections:
1: An accompaniment created using pre-programmed

“styles”. You specify chord changes and repeats as
required.

2: Four “parts” (similar to sequencer tracks) on which you

can record melody lines, counter lines, or just about
anything you like using the QY8 voices.

The “Option Functions” shown in the diagram are de-
scribed in chapter 7 (page 47).
