Listening, Timing And Waiting - Yamaha YPT-330 Owner's Manual

Listening, Timing and Waiting

You can select any Song you like and use it for a left-hand, right-hand, or both-hands
lesson. Song Lesson lets you learn how to play Songs in three easy steps.
The Lesson modes:
 1 Listening
There's no need to play the keyboard in this mode. The model melody/chords (in
other words, the musical material you should learn) of the part you selected will
sound. Listen to it carefully and learn it well.
The notation and key positions of the model melody are
shown in the display.
 2 Timing
In this mode, try playing the notes with the correct timing. Simply concentrate on
playing each note in time with the rhythmic accompaniment. The correct notes
sound even if you play wrong notes as long as you play in time with the rhythm. Play
the notes shown in the display.
 3 Waiting
In this mode, try playing the correct notes. The notes you should play appear in the
score and the keyboard on the display. The Song pauses until you play the right note.
Song playback tempo will vary to match the speed you are playing at. The song will
slow down when you play wrong notes, so you can learn at your own pace and
tempo.
