Using Meter Play Method
(1) If you haven’t already done so, select a hymn or song that you want to play.
(2) Meter Play Method is the default choice and should already be highlighted to
indicate it is active. The title with suggested tempo should also appear in the Display.
(3) Choose any key on the keyboard to start tapping. With first key played, the Display
will change to the NOTE NAVIGATOR screen.
(4) The NOTE NAVIGATOR screen presents a grid of large dots that appear between
vertical bars on the screen. The dots (•) represent “beats,” and the vertical bars ( .)
represent “measures.” The Note Navigator will be your guide to tapping out a hymn or
song.
(5) With each keystroke, the dots (•) change to a large plus mark (+) after a note is
played.
Be sure to play with even beats – only one key at a time. Continue playing to the end,
where you will see a double bar ( ..). After this marking, the title screen will reappear. If
you continue playing the keys with even beats, the hymn or song will repeat from the
beginning.
(6) If you stop playing at any time, the hymn or song playback will stop. You may
resume playing after the pause or press BACK to select another hymn or song.
Rhythm Play Method
The Rhythm Play Method is also an easy way to play a hymn or song. However, with
this method, the technique for tapping requires you to use a prescribed rhythm that
corresponds to the melody of the selected hymn or song.
(1) Choose a song to play. The Display will show a title, number and tempo (similar to
the Meter Play Method).
(2) Press the function button that corresponds to the RHYTHM button in the display.
The word Rhythm should be highlighted to indicate that the Rhythm Play Method is
active.
(3) With first key played, the display will change to the NOTE NAVIGATOR screen
(similar to the Meter Play Method). As before, this screen presents a grid of large dots
that appear between vertical bars on the screen. The dots (•) represent either beats or
notes, and the vertical bars ( .) represent measures. The Note Navigator will be your
guide to tapping out a hymn or song.
(4) Understanding the NOTE NAVIGATOR Screen: In the previous Meter Play Method,
the NOTE NAVIGATOR screen showed only one dot per beat. That is appropriate for
the Meter Play Method; since you would tap only once for each beat no matter how
many actual notes are played by the LH-1 during that beat (the LH-1 would often play
two or even three notes during a single beat).
