Using Steps 2 and 3
In step 1 of the above procedure, use the 3-STEP
LESSON button cycle through the steps until
the Step 2 or Step 3 indicator is displayed.
In Step 2, you learn correct keyboard keys you
need to press. The on-screen music staff and
graphic keyboard show you the notes to play
and the keys to press. You can play at your
own pace, even if it is very slow. Both the on-
screen indicators and the accompaniment
wait until you play the correct note. Unlike
Step 1, accompaniment does not restart unless
you press the correct keyboard key. Playback
resumes when you press the correct key, and
continues up the next melody note, where
accompaniment pauses again, and the on-
screen keyboard and staff indicate the note
you should play.
In Step 3, you play along at regular speed.
The on-screen guide indicators and
accompaniment change at normal speed,
without waiting for you to play the correct
note.

Press the START/STOP button.
This starts playback of the Song Bank
tune. When playback reached the point
where the first melody note should be
played, the key you should press is
indicated on the on-screen keyboard,
and the note you should play is
indicated on the on-screen staff. At this
time, playback pauses and
accompaniment stands by, waiting for
you to play the first note. Press the
indicated key to start your practice
session.
Playback of the tune resumes as soon as
you press the indicated keyboard key.
When playback reaches the next melody
note, accompaniment pauses again, and
the on-screen keyboard and staff
indicate the note you should play. Even
if you make a mistake and press the
wrong key, the keyboard plays the
correct note.
4.
To stop your practice session, press
the START/STOP or the 3-STEP
LESSON button.
Pressing the 3-STEP LESSON button to
stop the practice session also selects the
next step (Step 2 in this example). At this
point you could start a Step 2 practice
session, if you want.
5.
To turn off 3-Step Lesson, press the
3-STEP LESSON button to cycle
through the steps until there is no
indicator in the 3-Step Lesson
indicator area.
