DJ Pad function Let us now look at one of the new Session Partner functions that allows you to use the EM-55 OR DJ style. (See pages 23 and 40 for the remaining Session Partner/Track functions.) The DJ PAD function allows you to start and stop eight different phrases of a selected Music Style by pressing buttons, rather than playing on the keyboard. After starting a phrase, you can change its key by playing the corresponding chord in the left half of the keyboard. This would allow you to create entire songs. You can even record the music you create using the DJ Pad function. Oh… and one last thing: it is perfectly possible to start several phrases at once (the DJ Pad function is polyphonic). (1) Press the [STYLE] button. Check whether the [STYLE≈A] icon is displayed. The upper SESSION PARTNER [TRACK] indicator lights. (2) Press the [STYLE PAD/DJ TRACK] button once or twice (the DJ PAD indicator must light). (3) Now use the [1/9]~[8/16] buttons to start the assigned phrases (the indicators of the buttons you press light). You can press several buttons simultaneously if you like. Briefly pressing them starts the assigned phrase, which will be played for as long as you hold the button. If you press and hold one of these buttons, the phrase will be repeated again and again (“looped”). Press the corresponding button again to stop the loop of the assigned phrase. (4) If necessary, use the [TEMPO/DATA] dial to change the tempo. ENGLISH ENGLISH ENGLISH ENGLISH 9
