. Practicing a Four-hand Performance using the PR-1
to record one of the parts
You can practice playing a four-hand performance by first recording one of the parts to CD then playing along with the
recording.
<CONNECTION AND ADJUSTMENT>
Turn the POWER on as in pg.8.
Connect an amplifier and external speakers to the LINE OUT or connect a set of headphones to PHONES jack to
listen.
Insert the CD that you used to record one of the parts of a four-hand performance and play the CD.
While playing, you can use the MASTER VOLUME knob and the CD VOL knob to adjust the balance between the
live piano and the CD.
When you listen to the CD with headphones, do not turn off the piano microphones because you cannot hear your
live performance properly without them. When using headphones only the player can hear the sound of the CD.
You must connect an amplifier and external speakers in order for others to listen to both parts.

. Playing along with a Karaoke or music minus one CD

You can enjoy playing along with karaoke CD's or music minus one CD's for piano using the PR-1. You can add reverb to
your performance and to the CD as well. Experimenting with adding reverb to the piano or the CD can add to your
enjoyment of performing with these types of CD's.
The connection and adjustments are same as the four-hand performance above. When using headphones only the player
can hear the sound of the CD. You must connect an amplifier and external speakers in order for others to listen or perform
with the CD.
