Additional “Human Voice”sounds such as Gregorian Choir, Jazz Scat and Soprano Voice are also provided—complete with phrases like “Amen” and “Hallelujah.”

 

Diverse Music Styles to Expand Your Creative Potential

 

One of the AT-90S’ greatest features is its wide range of music styles (rhythms and performance patterns), which were produced by professional musicians from around the world. Create lush accompaniments using the Big Band or March styles, or use a simple acoustic instrumental style to complement a vocal soloist. These styles are so realistic, it feels like you’re playing with a live band! The AT-90S also has a variety of “Style Orchestrator ” functions that add diversity to the accompaniments based on the selected style.

 

Helpful Features Make It Easy to Sound Great!

 

The AT-90S can even help you select the optimum settings for your performance. 16 different accompaniment settings for each music style can be accessed simply by pressing the One Touch Program button. A helpful Music Assistant makes it easy to load optimum rhythm, tempo and tone settings by selecting keywords on the LCD panel. And with the Quick Registration function, you can enjoy brilliant registrations created by world-renowned organists.

 

Innovative Functions Create New Potential for Organ Music
