With the Advanced 3-Step Lesson System, you can practice the built-in tunes and even plot your progress according to the evaluation points the keyboard awards you.
The 3-Step Lesson System lets you practice at your own pace. With the Evaluation Mode, you can get an idea of how much you are progressing. You can even find out what phrases in your performance need more work and concentrate your practice there.

3-Step Lesson
The 3-step lesson feature takes you through the three distinct steps described below to help you learn to play tunes on the keyboard.
Step 1 – Master the timing.
In this step, pressing any key on the keyboard plays the correct note, so you can concentrate on getting the timing right without worrying about playing the right note. Accompaniment (left-hand part) waits until you press a key before proceeding to the next phrase.
Step 2 – Master the notes.
In this step, you learn the keys to press to play the notes. The keys you need to press light on the on-screen keyboard guide, so simply follow along as you learn to play. Accompaniment (left-hand part) waits until your play the correct note, so you can learn at your own pace.
Step 3 – Play at normal speed.
This is where you enjoy actually playing the tunes you learn using Step 1 and Step 2. The on-screen keyboard guide still shows you which keyboard keys to press, but accompaniment proceeds at normal speed regardless of whether or not you play the correct notes.
Tune Types and Their Parts
The built-in tunes of this keyboard are divided between two basic groups: Auto Accompaniment tunes (Song Bank) and two-hand accompaniment tunes (Piano Bank). The parts available for 3-step lesson practice depend on the type of tune you are using.
Auto Accompaniment Tunes (Song Bank)
As their name suggests, these tunes are made up of an Auto Accompaniment part and a melody part. When using these tunes for a 3-step lesson, you can practice playing along with the melody (right hand) part only.
Two-hand Tunes (Piano Bank)
These types of tunes are played with both hands, as in a piano solo. When using these tunes for a 3-step lesson, you can practice playing along with both the left hand and right hand parts.
Display Contents During 3-step Lesson Play
Whenever you select an Auto Accompaniment tune for 3- step lesson play, the on-screen keyboard guide and staff notation shows the note you should play and its length. The on-screen keyboard guide also shows the notes you play on the keyboard. The following describes the information that appears on the display.
Note Pitch
The key you should press lights on the on-screen keyboard guide, while the actual pitch of the note appears in the display’s staff notation area. The fingers you should use to play the notes are also shown on the display.
Note Length
The key stays lit on the on-screen keyboard guide for as long as the note should be sustained. The staff notation and fingerings also remain on the display for the length of the note.
Next Note
An on-screen keyboard guide key flashes to indicate the next note to be played, while a number appears on the display near the finger you should use to play the next note.
Series of Same Pitch Notes
The on-screen keyboard guide key turns off momentarily between the notes, and lights again for each successive note. The staff notation and fingerings also turn off and back on again.
Example: When play requires pressing keys with fingers 3, 2, and then 1
