and speed can be adjusted to the desired tempo for your song or situation.

chamber ensembles or band scores. Of course, you can easily record the
automatic accompaniment.
Step Recording:
The step recording function lets you record an automatic accompaniment by
inputting chords and panel operations one by one. By using this, you can
easily input music from a chord chart even if you are not a skilled
pianist.
