Muting the Right- or Left-hand Part Viewing the Score

The Guide function indicates the notes you should play, when you should play them, and how long you should hold

them down. You can also practice at your own pace—since the accompaniment waits for you to play the notes cor-

rectly. Here, mute the right- or left-hand part and try practicing the part.

Practicing the Right-hand Part (TRACK 1)

LEFT CH/RIGHT CH

Determines which MIDI channel in the Song data is used for the left-hand/right-hand part. This set-

ting returns to AUTO when a different Song is selected.

AUTO

The MIDI channels in the Song data for the right- and left-hand parts are assigned automatically—

setting the parts to the same channel as the channel which is speciﬁed in the [FUNCTION] →

[B] SONG SETTING.

1–16

Assigns the speciﬁed MIDI channel (1–16) to each of the left- and right-hand parts.

OFF (LEFT CH only)

No channel assignment: This disables display of the left-hand key range.

KEY SIGNATURE This lets you enter key signature changes in the middle of a song, at the stopped position. This menu

is useful when the selected Song contains no key signature settings for displaying notation.

QUANTIZE

This gives you control over the note resolution in the notation, letting you shift or correct the timing

of all displayed notes so that they line up to a particular note value. Make sure to select the smallest

note value used in the song.

NOTE NAME

Selects the type of the note name indicated at the left of the note in the notation from among the fol-

lowing three types. The settings here are available when the NOTE parameter in “Display the note

name at the left of the note” step 1 is set to ON.

A, B, C

Note names are indicated as letters (C, D, E, F, G, A, B).

FIXED DO

Note names are indicated in solfeggio and differ depending on the selected language.

The language is speciﬁed in LANGUAGE of the OWNER display (page 19).

MOVABLE DO

Note names are indicated in solfeggio according to the scale intervals, and as such are relative to

the key. The root note is indicated as Do. For example, in the key of G major the root note of “So”

would be indicated as “Do.” As with “Fixed Do,” the indication differs depending on the selected

language.
