Turning Part Playback On And Off - Yamaha CP300 Owner's Manual

Song Playback
n Performance mode is automatically turned off if you start Song playback while Performance mode is on.
Automatically Starting Song Playback by Playing the Keyboard—
Synchro Start
You can pause playback to begin when you play the keyboard (Synchro Start). Hold down the [STOP] button
and press the [PLAY/PAUSE] button. The [PLAY/PAUSE] indicator will blink, and the CP300 will wait for
Synchro Start.
In this condition, playback begins as soon as you play the keyboard.
n If you press the [STOP] button while waiting, Synchro Start will be cancelled.
Pedal Play/Pause
You can alternately start or pause Song playback by pressing a pedal connected to the CP300's [ASSIGNABLE
FOOT PEDAL] jack. A pedal connected to the [ASSIGNABLE FOOT PEDAL] jack can be assigned to play
and pause Preset Song playback from the "Pedal Play/Pause" parameter in the Other Settings function
described on page 70.
This is convenient when performing along with previously recorded parts—it lets you stop and start playback
of the recorded backing, while you add parts of your own live.

Turning Part Playback On and Off

While the CP300 is playing or stopped, pressing these track buttons turn off the indicators, and the data on
those parts will not be played. Pressing the part buttons toggles part playback on and off. Turning a playback
part off lets you play that part yourself while the other parts play back.
