OTS LINK TIM-
ING

This applies to the OTS Link function. This parameter determines the 
timing in which the One Touch Settings change with the MAIN VARIA-
TION [A]–[D] change. (The [OTS LINK] button must be on.)

REAL TIME

One Touch Setting is immediately called up when you press a MAIN 
VARIATION button.

NEXT BAR

One Touch Setting is called up at the next measure, after you press a 
MAIN VARIATION button.

SYNCHRO 
STOP WIN-
DOW

This determines how long you can hold a chord before the Synchro Stop 
function is automatically cancelled. When the [SYNC STOP] button is 
turned on and this is set to a value other than “OFF,” this is automatically 
cancels the Synchro Stop function if you hold a chord for longer than the 
time set here. This conveniently resets Style playback control to normal, 
letting you release the keys and still have the Style play. In other words, if 
you release the keys sooner than the time set here, the Synchro Stop func-
tion works.

STYLE TOUCH

Turns touch response for the Style playback on/off. When this is set to 
“ON,” the Style volume changes in response to your playing strength in 
the chord section of the keyboard.

SECTION SET

Determines the default section that is automatically called up when 
selecting different Styles (when Style playback is stopped). When set to 
“OFF” and Style playback is stopped, the active section is maintained 
even if the different Style is selected. When any of the MAIN A–D sec-
tions is not included in the Style data, the nearest section is automatically 
selected. For example, when MAIN D is not contained in the selected 
Style, MAIN C will be called up.

TEMPO

This determines whether the tempo changes or not when you change 
Styles during Style playback.

HOLD

The tempo setting of the previous Style is maintained.

RESET

The tempo changes to that of the initial default tempo for the selected 
Style.

when you change Styles.
