Configuration of a Style A complete Style consists of the following patterns: Basic pattern Fill-in Intro Major Intro Minor Ending Major Ending Minor 4 patterns (Variation 1­4) 4 patterns (Fill-In 1­4) 2 patterns 2 patterns 2 patterns 2 patterns Max 16 measures 1 or 2 measures Max 16 measures Max 16 measures Max 16 measures Max 16 measures · Each of these patterns in a Full Style is made up of six Sections--Drum, Bass, ACC1, ACC2, ACC3 and ACC4. You can use up to six sections in a User Style but you don't necessarily have to use all of the sections to create a Style. For example, just like the Intimate and Solo Piano Styles you may not need to use some Variations or Sections to accomplish your musical idea. · The different Sections can be of varying bar lengths as long as they stay within the limit. Having them all the same length may make the Style easier to use in a song, but you may find that having uneven bar lengths among the Sections can create interesting musical results. · For simplicity's sake it is advisable to record your new style in the key of C. 3) To make a completely new Style, press the Make New Style button (L1) and use the Dial to select the time signature for the style you are going to make.
