Quick Start 22 r E-60/E-50 Music Workstation 3. Quick Start In this chapter, we will scratch the surface and walk you through the major functions. The general idea Your E-60/E-50 is several instruments in one. There are three main sections you can use for playing live.
Playing to an automatic accompaniment E-60/E-50 Music Workstation r 23 (4) Set the MASTER [VOLUME] knob to a reasonable level (e.g. about “1/4”). (5) Press the [MAIN] button (it lights). (6) Play a chord in the left half of the keyboard, then press the STYLE CONTROL [START÷STOP] button.
Quick Start 24 r E-60/E-50 Music Workstation (3) Press the [AUTO¥FILL¥IN] button (it lights). (4) Press a VARIATION [1] ~ [4] button to select another MAIN pattern.
Playing to an automatic accompaniment E-60/E-50 Music Workstation r 25 So far, we have been using only one Music Style (the one that is selected automatically at power-on). Here is how to select a different accompaniment: (1) Press a button of the STYLE pad to select a Music Style family.
Quick Start 26 r E-60/E-50 Music Workstation Using the Keyboard parts Your E-60/E-50 provides 4 “parts” that allow you to play different sounds on the keyboard. Those parts are called “Keyboard parts”. Let’s add a live melody to the accompaniment.
Using the Keyboard parts E-60/E-50 Music Workstation r 27 Selecting sounds for the Keyboard parts ■ One Touch The easiest way to select suitable Tones for the Key- board parts while working with the Arranger is by using the ONE TOUCH feature. The One Touch memo- ries are in fact small User Programs.
Quick Start 28 r E-60/E-50 Music Workstation (6) Press the [EXIT] button to return to the main page. Next time you select this TONE family, the E-60/E-50 automatically jumps to the page that contains the last sound you selected (and activates it).
Playing realistic guitar parts ( Guitar mode) E-60/E-50 Music Workstation r 29 (5) Press the [EXIT] button to return to the main page. Playing realistic guitar parts (Guitar mode) Your E-60/E-50 provides a Guitar mode that allows you to play extremely realistic guitar parts via the keyboard.
Quick Start 30 r E-60/E-50 Music Workstation (4) Press the first “C” key to the right of the “CHORD” area. This sounds the note a guitarist would play on the low E string. The key you are pressing now belongs to the “ARPEGGIO” section. (5) Now press the “D” to the right of the “C” you used above.
Playing realistic guitar parts ( Guitar mode) E-60/E-50 Music Workstation r 31 Selecting guitar sounds Now that you know how to use some of the Guitar functions, let’s try these techniques with different sounds. Additional playing techniques are discussed under “Using the available STRUMM techniques” on p.
Quick Start 32 r E-60/E-50 Music Workstation ● e Down fast mute/ a up fast (E b 5)— Here is another downward strum that is muted almost instantly when you press this key. Guitarists achieve this effect by put- ting their hand on all strings. When you release this key, your virtual guitar plays an upward strum, which is not muted.
Working with the Music Assistant E-60/E-50 Music Workstation r 33 ● ADAPT CHORD— Switch this parameter on if your virtual guitar should adapt its chord voicings to the inversions you play in the “CHORD” area. As you know, each chord can be played in a variety of ways on a keyboard and a guitar.
Quick Start 34 r E-60/E-50 Music Workstation • Press the [ARTIST] field to sort the Music Assistant entries alphabetically by artist name. This reshuffles the list. The genre names (right column) disappear and are replaced by the artists’ names, which are displayed in alphabetical order.
Playing back songs (Standard MIDI Files) E-60/E-50 Music Workstation r 35 Playing back songs (Standard MIDI Files) Your E-60/E-50 contains all kinds of functions for “cus- tomizing” the songs you play back via easy-to-use rou- tines. Let us first look at the playback functions proper.
Quick Start 36 r E-60/E-50 Music Workstation • Press the [PLAY&SEARCH] field. • As indicated in the display, play the main theme on the keyboard. You can play in any key and the rhythm doesn’t have to be perfect either (this function just looks for intervals).

Quick Start 38 r E-60/E-50 Music Workstation Using the Song Cover function The COVER function provides “masks” that change the instrumentation of the selected song (or Music Style). Simply by selecting another preset, you can cause a Viennese waltz to be played back by a heavy metal band, etc.

Quick Start 42 r E-60/E-50 Music Workstation Recording without accompaniment Let us now look at how to start recording without automatic accompaniment. You can nevertheless start the Arranger at a later stage (after your ad lib introduc- tion, for example): it will play in sync with the song tempo.
Recording your music E-60/E-50 Music Workstation r 43 You have just selected the more detailed recording function (the “sequencer”). The display changes to: The bars in the right part of the display indicate the tracks that already contain data. (3) Press the RECORDER [REC¥∏] button.
Quick Start 44 r E-60/E-50 Music Workstation Saving your song A song you save to becomes a Standard MIDI File that can be played back with the E-60/E-50, but also with any other SMF-compatible sequencer. There are two ways of saving new or edited songs: • Via the [DISK¥&¥MEDIA] button and the related menu (see p.
Arranger , Piano, Organ and Guitar modes E-60/E-50 Music Workstation r 45 4. About the Keyboard modes The KBD MODE setting is the singlemost important parameter of your E-60/E-50 because it determines which parts (or Tones) and sections are available.
About the Keyboard modes 46 r E-60/E-50 Music Workstation The left half of the keyboard allows you to use one part for chords (the LWR part, “Heavy Traffic”) and a second one that plays bass notes. Just like in Arranger mode, there is a simplified chord fingering system for the LWR part.
Split and Whole modes E-60/E-50 Music Workstation r 47 Using WHOLE mode Whole means that all keys trigger the same part(s). There is thus no split. You can assign up to 4 parts to the entire keyboard: MBS, LWR, UP2 and UP1. (1) Return to the main page and press the [WHOLE] field.

Using the performance functions 54 r E-60/E-50 Music Workstation ● Chord Oct 1/2/3— By holding your hand inside the D Beam’s range, you cause the D Beam part to sound the notes extracted from the current song. You could use this function to add syncopated brass or guitar “hits” to your melody.
Using optional footswitches E-60/E-50 Music Workstation r 55 “ Auto ” means that the part in question only responds to Hold messages if it is assigned to the right half or the entire keyboard. “ On ” means that the part in question always responds to Hold messages, even if it is assigned to the left half of the keyboard.
