Chapter 3 Song Playback and Practice Functions

Chapter 3

Adjusting the Tempo

This changes the song and Music Style tempos.

If songs seem difficult to play at their original speed, you may find it helpful to first

practice with the tempo slowed down. Then, after becoming more familiar with the

song, you can practice it at a gradually faster tempo.

Changing the tempo has no effect on the pitch of the notes. And you can change the

tempo even when the song is in progress.

Pressing the [+] button once increases the tempo by one unit. Holding down the

Pressing the [-] [+] buttons simultaneously returns the selected Music Style or song

Adjusting the tempo with the dial

Rhythm screen (p. 44) or when using the practice function), you can use the dial to

adjust the tempo.

Turn the dial clockwise to speed up the tempo.
