Changing the Style Tempo

Every time you select a Style, you also recall a memorized playing speed, (TEMPO),
shown in the top left hand corner of the display.  You can speed up or slow down the
tempo, before or after starting the Style, by pressing the [TEMPO] buttons.

•

Press the [TEMPO ] button to increase the Tempo value, or the [TEMPO ]
button to decrease the value.

Holding down either button changes the Tempo value at high speed continually
until released.

Restoring the memorized Tempo

To restore the Style’s memorized Tempo, press both Tempo buttons at the same
time.

About the Chord Recognition Modes

The GK310 allows you to choose between two different Chord recognition modes:
FINGERED and ONE FINGER.  The chords that you play (Fingered or One Finger
type) must be played on the lower part of the keyboard dedicated to the Auto Bass
Chords (from note C2 up to and including note F#3).

FINGERED  mode requires that you press at least 3 notes for a chord to be
recognized.

ONE FINGER mode requires that you press only one note for a Major chord to
be recognized.  Other chords require more notes.

1. If a Chord recognition mode isn’t selected, press the [MODE] button as many

times as necessary until the left display arrowhead point to either FINGERED or
ONE FINGER.

2. Press the [START/STOP] button to start the current Style.

3. If you select FINGERED, play a chord of at least 3 notes on the Auto Bass Chord

section of the keyboard to trigger the auto-accompaniments.

If you select ONE FINGER, play one note on the Auto Bass Chord section of the
keyboard to trigger the Major chord of the auto-accompaniments  Other chords
using the “One finger” method involves the use of two or three fingers.

In the Appendix you’ll find useful reference charts for Fingered and One Finger
chords:

FINGERED (Appendix A);

ONE FINGER (Appendix B).

Using the Style Auto functions

The Styles provide a wide variety of automatic functions that make the GK310 very
easy to play.

Select the Fill In and change Style Variation

Each Style has two accompaniment patterns, NORMAL and VARIATION, which
you can select at any time before or after starting to play the Styles by pressing the
corresponding button.    The stutus of the LED on the FILL 1 or FILL 2 buttons tells
you which Style pattern is active for play, Normal or Variation.

When you press the [FILL 1 /NORMAL] or the [FILL 2 /VAR] button during play-
back, the current pattern will be interrupted by an appropriate Fill In, or “break”, then
proceed with the same pattern or variation, depending on which button you press.

The LED of the  button pressed will turn on while the LED of the other button will turn
off.
