Some MIDI Songs, such as Preset Songs, are divided into right-hand and left-
hand parts. By using such Song data, you can practice the left hand by turning
on only the right-hand part, and practice the right hand by turning on only the
left-hand part—allowing you to practice parts separately for easy mastery of
difficult material.

Select a Song for practicing.
For instructions, refer to page 45. The Song category "50 Classics" is
