e Using Songs
This instrument has 30 built in songs that you can simply listen to and enjoy,
or use with a range of other features. Use the songs with the lesson features
described on page 39 and you have an advanced learning tool that will let
you learn playing techniques as well as score reading. The internal songs
aren’t the only ones you can use, however. Songs you have created yourself
or those you have downloaded from the Internet can also be used with many
of the instrument’s features.
