2. Find the Song Bank tune you want in the “Song Bank list” and then enter its two-digit tune number.

3. Press the START/STOP button.

This starts playback of the Song Bank tune. When playback reached the point where the first melody note should be played, the key you should press is indicated on the on-screen keyboard, and the note you should play is

indicated on the on-screen staff. At this t i m e , p l a y b a c k p a u s e s a n d accompaniment stands by, waiting for you to play the first note. Press the indicated key to start your practice session.

Playback of the tune resumes as soon as you press the indicated keyboard key. When playback reaches the next melody note, accompaniment pauses again, and the on-screen keyboard and staff indicate the note you should play. Even if you make a mistake and press the wrong key, the keyboard plays the correct note.

4.To stop your practice session, press the START/STOP or the 3-STEP LESSON button.

Pressing the 3-STEP LESSON button to stop the practice session also selects the next step (Step 2 in this example). At this point you could start a Step 2 practice session, if you want.

5.To turn off 3-Step Lesson, press the 3-STEP LESSON button to cycle through the steps until there is no indicator in the 3-Step Lesson indicator area.

Using Steps 2 and 3

In step 1 of the above procedure, use the 3-STEP LESSON button cycle through the steps until the Step 2 or Step 3 indicator is displayed.

In Step 2, you learn correct keyboard keys you need to press. The on-screen music staff and graphic keyboard show you the notes to play and the keys to press. You can play at your own pace, even if it is very slow. Both the on- screen indicators and the accompaniment wait until you play the correct note. Unlike Step 1, accompaniment does not restart unless you press the correct keyboard key. Playback resumes when you press the correct key, and continues up the next melody note, where accompaniment pauses again, and the on- screen keyboard and staff indicate the note you should play.

In Step 3, you play along at regular speed. T h e o n - s c re e n g u i d e i n d i c a t o r s a n d accompaniment change at normal speed, without waiting for you to play the correct note.
