Guide—Keyboard and Vocal Practice Using the Guide Function
With the Guide function, the instrument indicates the timing you need to play notes in the Score display for ease in
learning. Also, when you sing along with a MIDI Song playback using a connected microphone, you can adjust the
timing of the MIDI Song playback to match your vocal performance manually by using the keyboard.

Guide menu for keyboard practice
• Follow Lights: When this is selected, Song playback pauses, waiting for you to play the
notes correctly. When you play the correct notes, Song playback continues. Follow
Lights was developed for the Yamaha Clavinova series. This function is used for practic-
ing purposes, with built-in lamps on the keyboard indicating the notes to be played. Even
though the PSR-SX900/SX700 does not have these lamps, you can use the same function
by following the indications in the displayed notation with the Song Score function.
• Any Key: With this function, you can play the melody of a Song just by pressing a single
key (any key is OK) in time with the rhythm. Song playback pauses and waits for you to
play any key. Simply play a key on the keyboard in time with the music and Song play-
back continues.
• Your Tempo: The same as Follow Lights, except that Song playback matches the speed at
which you play.
Guide menu for singing
• Karao-Key: This function lets you control the Song playback timing with just one finger,
while you sing along. This is useful for singing to your own performance. Song playback
pauses, waiting for you to sing. Simply play any key on the keyboard (playing the key-
board produces no sound) and Song playback continues.
