Basic Operation

Playing Back Recorded Songs and Commercially-available Music Data

Turning part playback on and off
You can practice a part or
phrase using the “SongRepeat
(page 73)” and “PhraseMark
(page 73)” parameters in the
“FILE/SONG SETTING” menu.
Appropriate channels (parts) in
the song will automatically be
assigned to [RIGHT] and
[LEFT]. Therefore, [RIGHT] may
be assigned to a part other
than Part 1, or [LEFT] to a part
other than Part 2.
While the Clavinova is playing or stopped, pressing these part buttons turn
off the indicators, and the data on those parts will not be played. Pressing the
part buttons toggles part playback on and off. You can play the part that is
turned off.
