DGX 660: how to record song with accompaniment?

[Toddbish10]

When I try to turn on accompaniment before recording the song by pressing the style button then the accompaniment button, The display goes to style list and when I hit exit the song is gone from the display. So if I have a song displayed and I touch the style button, the song disappears. So I cannot turn accompaniment on and then record. Very frustrating!

I think all you need to do at that point is press the REC button. See page 44 of the manual, especially items 2 and 3 under "Song Recording."

Finally found a way to get this to work.
So, i have a yamaha DGX-660.

1. Set the split point to lowest a-2 something like that
2. Next Press Style, and choose your style
3. Make sure ACMP is visible on the digital screen
4. Press REC, THEN press Start button.
5. This will trigger style to start playing the drums.
6. Left hand wont trigger chords because of the earlier split point change.
7. And that's really all you need to do.

It wont work on the first try. It took me half hour to find a combination that works.
Sometimes, i need to record something stupid just to have something on it.
THEN remove the A track, and it will work on next try.

If needed, i can make a youtube video if anyone interested.
