Playing Each Hand
Separately

The built-in songs allow you to select the performance part
that will be played back.

The left-hand performance of the built-in songs is assigned to
the [Left] button, while the right-hand performance is
assigned to the [Right] button. The place where each part of
the performance is held is called a “track,” and the [Left] and
[Right] buttons are called “track buttons.”

Here’s how to practice each hand separately along with the
song.

First select the song that you want to play back (p. 13).

Selecting the part that you yourself will
play

1. Press the [Left] or [Right] button.

The indicator of the button you’ve pressed goes out, and
the sound of the selected part will no longer be heard.

For example, if you want to practice the right hand, press
button [Right] and get its indicator to go dark. When you
play back the song, the right-hand performance will not
sound.

Playing back a song

2. Press the [Play] button, getting its indicator to

light.

The song will begin playing back. The part you selected in
step 1 will not sound.

Practice your right-hand performance along with the left-
hand playback.

Once again press the button you selected in step 1. The
button’s indicator will light, and the sound will be heard
once again.

Even while the song is playing, you can press the track
buttons to mute or un-mute the sound.

Stopping the song

3. Press the [Play] button, getting its indicator to go

dark.

The song will stop.
