With this feature, the PSR-420 waits for you to play the appropriate keys
before playing ahead, so you can learn to play the piece at your own pace.
Press the [GUIDE] button so that its icon appears in the display to turn the
guide mode on. The "MinusMod" function in the OVERALL function group
determines which part(s) is guided. If you want to play the guided part(s) your-
self, press the [MINUS ONE] button to on to mute the guided part(s).
REC
When you press the SONG [PLAY/STOP] button to begin playback, the
introduction will play automatically but then the PSR-420 will stop and wait
for you to play the next key(s). The next key(s) to be played are indicated
via the guide lamps above the keyboard. As you play the appropriate keys,
the piece will continue, pausing until you play the right keys each time.
As with automated performance, the song will stop automatically when
the end is reached, or it can be stopped at any time by pressing the SONG
[PLAY/STOP] button.

GUIDE
• Song playback tempo can be set
to any desired value after a song
has been selected by using the
TEMPO [ ] and [ ] buttons.
• If the guide lamps flashing above
the keyboard distract you, or you
want to try playing along without
them, use the "Lamp" function in
the OVERALL function group to
turn them off — page 55. The
guide function operates as de-
scribed above whether the lamps
are turned on or off.
