The Styles you need to play Indian music

Auto-accompaniment “Styles” are a function that adds rhythm and accompaniment when you play chords with your left hand. In addition to genres such as rock and jazz, the PSR-I300 also responds to the patterns often used in Indian music, offering a comprehensive range of support functions that allow you to enjoy performing with Styles without any knowledge of chords or music, including Smart Chord for one-finger performance with Styles, a Music Database that offers suggestions for frequently used combinations of Voices and Styles, and Chord Dictionary, which lets you look up how to play chords. The PSR-I300 also offers a Riyaz Lite function that plays Tabla/Mridangam and Tanpura, so that you can practice scales and singing as well as provide backing for Indian music.

A suite of lesson functions

The PSR-I300 comes equipped with a variety of lessons for independent study that will put beginning players at ease, and which help you learn everything from classic songs known around the world to the Raga scales unique to Indian music.
