cially programmed DJ song and voice.

Turn on the Lesson feature, and select a Lesson step.

Lesson steps 1 - 3 can be used with DJ play. Press either the [L] or [R] but-

ton, repeatedly if necessary, until the desired Lesson step is called up.

The DJ voice is divided into “blocks” (as shown below). Each block has a

different sound.

For Lesson 1, any note on the keyboard can be played. For the other Lesson

steps, play the appropriate octave block.

Once the song starts playing and the DJ “teacher” says “Go,” play the appro-

priate block as indicated in the display. (When Talking is on, the blocks are

also “announced” in Lesson 2.)

When the DJ “teacher” is playing, the block numbers appear in the display

one after another according to the rhythm.
