Stop Accompaniment. Yamaha PSR-9000, 9000 Pro

4. The New Features

Stop Accompaniment ............................................

This new function allows auto accompaniment to be used even when accompaniment playback is stopped. When a chord is played in the auto-accompaniment section of the keyboard the currently selected pad and bass parts will sound. This can be particularly handy for free-tempo (rubato) passages, or simply to practice at your own pace.
