100 Built-in Song Bank tunes

• A total of 100 built-in Song Bank tunes comes built in for playback enjoyment or play-along practice.

3-Step Lesson System

Develop your musical skills by following the keys as they light. First you become familiar with the timing of the notes by watching the keys light as you playback one of the 100 built-in Song Bank tunes. Next, practice playing along at a pace that’s comfortable for you. Finally, try playing along at the normal tempo for the Song Bank tune.

A simulated human voice is used during Step 1 or Step 2 play to call out the fingers you should use to play the required notes (Voice Fingering). The timing of notes is also indicated on the display screen.

Auto Accompaniment

Simply specify a chord and the keyboard automatically produces the matching rhythm, bass, and chord patterns. One-touch fill-ins make accompaniments sound interesting and natural.

Transpose Function

• An easy operation instantly changes the key of the keyboard.

MIDI compatibility
