a "band" assisting you which does not include

additional possibilities for accompaniment variation and more sound flexibility.

The SEQUENCER stores your entire performance-melody and accompaniment, sounds and panel setting
changes, even changes in the rhythm-for completely automatic playback whenever you desire. You can
store your performance part-by-part, then have it all play back at the same time. You can store a 'chord
progression to use with the AUTO PLAY CHORD. You can modify any or all of your performance. In other
words, the SEQUENCER is an incredibly useful and versatile tool which infinitely enhances the practicability
of your PR Digital Ensemble Piano.

Data for up to 20 performances-including all panel settings, button memories, COMPOSER and SEQUENCER contents-can be stored on one SY-D20 digital memory disk (floppy disk) using the Digital
Disk Recorder (included on the PR350; for the PR50V and PR250, the SY-FD20 is an option). The storable
internal memory is fixed at a limited capacity, but this external memory device expands the storable
memory infinitely. By recording performance data, one simple procedure lets you load the recorded settings
into the piano's memory at any time.

Whatis MIDI?
MIDI (Musical Instrument Digital Interface) is the international standard for digital communication of
electronic musical instrument data.
This means that any equipment which has a MIDI terminal-such as electronic musical instruments and
personal computers-can easily exchange digital data with other MIDI equipment without resorting to
complicated conversions or connections.
