Connecting a CD Drive
(Sold Separately)
By connecting a commercially available CD drive that is USB-
compatible, you can use the FP-7 to play back ordinary music
CDs or songs from a CD-ROM that contains SMF music files.
The FP-7 provides a range of performance possibilities, such
as a “Center Cancel” function, which minimizes the vocal
portion of commercially available CDs so that you can sing the
vocal yourself, and a “Melody Guide” function, which mutes
the melody portion of SMF music files so that you can play it
yourself.
1.
Power off the FP-7 and the CD drive that you’ll
be connecting.
2.
Using the USB cable included with the CD
drive, connect the CD drive’s USB connector to
the FP-7’s external memory connector.
