Using The Song Lesson Feature; Listening, Timing, And Waiting; Practicing With A Song Lesson - Yamaha PSR-E283 Reference Manual

Using the Song Lesson Feature

You can use the selected Song for a left-hand, right-hand, or both-hands Lesson. Try practicing with three Song Lesson types
while referring to the music scores in the Song Book (page 2).

Listening, Timing, and Waiting

•
Lesson 1—Listening to a model performance
(LISTEN)
In this Lesson, you do not need to play the keyboard. The part
you selected will sound as a model. Listen to the Song carefully
and remember it well.
•
Lesson 2—Key play timing (TIMING)
In this Lesson, simply concentrate on playing the keys with the
correct timing. Even if you play the wrong notes, the correct
notes shown on the display will sound.
•
Lesson 3—Your own pace (WAITING)
In this Lesson, try playing the correct notes shown on the
display. Song playback will wait until you play the correct key.
The Song playback tempo changes to match the pace of the
player, so you can practice at your own pace.
• If you want to keep the playback tempo constant during
"Lesson 3—Your own pace (WAITING)," set the function
(page 33, Function number 023) to "oFF (off)" in
"Function Settings."
