[. . . ] Press any one of the four [ONE TOUCH SETTING] buttons to instantly call up the following pre-programmed settings for style play. · [ACMP] and [SYNC START] are automatically turned on, letting you start the style as soon as you play a left-hand chord on the keyboard. · Custom panel settings (for voices, keyboard parts, effects, etc. ) designed to best match the selected style are automatically called up -- letting you instantly reconfigure the instrument to suit the music you play. The TYROS actually has three different features that let you instantly call up complete panel setups: One Touch Setting (described here), Music Finder, and Registration Memory. One Touch Setting differs from the other two in that each OTS panel setting is dedicated to a particular style -- first, you select a style for your performance, then you press a [ONE TOUCH SETTING] button to match the panel settings to that style.

The convenient OTS (One Touch Setting) Link function lets you automatically have One Touch Settings change when you select a different Main section (A - D). The Main sections A, B, C, and D correspond to One Touch Settings 1, 2, 3, and 4, respectively. This is especially powerful for live performance situations, letting you instantly and easily reconfigure the instrument as you play.

This function lets you memorize the path of a specific style to a specific STYLE button. Even if your data is scattered across the drive in a complex hierarchy of folders and paths, you can instantly call up a specific file -- no matter how deeply hidden -- with a single button-press. 1 2 Call up the Open/Save display for styles with the Number Input Type (page 71). First, select the style to be memorized by calling up the appropriate path, then press the [MEMORY] LCD button. A B C D E 3 Check that the path set in step #2 above has been properly memorized.

When auto accompaniment is turned on and Syncro Start is off, you can play chords in the left-hand (accompaniment) section of the keyboard with the style stopped, and still hear the accompaniment chord. In this condition -- called "Stop Accompaniment" -- any valid chord fingerings are recognized and the chord root/type are shown in the LCD. Since the TYROS properly recognizes the chord, you can also use the Chord Match function (page 38) with the Multi Pads or the Harmony effect (page 39) without having to play back a style. From the display above, you can determine whether the chord played in the chord section will sound or not in the Stop Accompaniment status. · The chord detected by playing the Stop Accompaniment can be recorded to a song regardless of the setting here. Please note that the voice sound will be recorded when set to "STYLE, " and will not be recorded when set to "OFF" or "FIXED.
