Playing Demo Songs

Listening to Songs Loaded from an External Source

You can import song data from an SD memory card or computer as a user song, and use it for Auto Accompaniment or for practice.

1. Load the song data you want to listen to one of the Digital Piano’s user songs.

See “Loading Data from a Memory Card” (page E-47) and “Connecting to a Computer” (page E-51) for details about how to load data.

You also could play back data directly from a memory card without loading it into Digital Piano memory. For details, see “Playing Back a Song from a Memory Card” (page E-48).

Each press of the button toggles between the upper and lower lamps.

Changing the Song Tempo

You can change the song tempo using the same procedure that you use to adjust the metronome tempo. For more information, see “Changing the Tempo Setting” (page E-14).

Playing on the Keyboard Using the Same Tone as the Song

1. Hold down the  (USER SONGS) button for at least two seconds.

This will assign the same tone as the right hand part of the current song to the keyboard.

NOTE

You can use the procedure under “Practicing Either Hand’s Part (Part Off)” (page E-26) to turn off the left hand part and play along on the keyboard using the left hand part tone.
