Auto Accompaniment; Selecting A Style - Yamaha PortaTone PSR-510 Owner's Manual

Auto Accompaniment

The PSR-510 has 103 accompaniment styles that can be used to provide fully-orchestrated Auto
Accompaniment.
When the Auto Accompaniment function is turned ON, the PSR-510 creates fully-orchestrated
rhythm, bass, and chord accompaniment based on chords you play with the left hand in the Auto
Accompaniment section of the keyboard (i.e. all keys to the left of the Auto Accompaniment split
point). The right-hand section of the keyboard is available for normal playing.
The default Auto Accompaniment split point
is the G2 (55) key. The Auto Accompaniment
section of the keyboard consists of all keys to
its left. The Auto Accompaniment split point
can be set to any other key as described in
"Setting the Auto Accompaniment Split Point"
on page 24.
• The PSR-510 also has a special "Full" Auto Accompaniment fingering mode in which chords played anywhere
NOTES
on the keyboard determine the Auto Accompaniment chords. See page 27 for details.
