d. HYMN PLAYER Operation
Once you have selected a hymn or song, there are three different ways to play it
using the Hymn Player feature:
AUTOPLAY: You can play any hymn or song automatically. Simply select a
hymn/song and press the PLAY VERSE button. The selected hymn will
immediately play. For step-by-step instructions, please refer to page 17 of the
LH-2 Owner’s Manual.
METER PLAY METHOD: You can play a hymn (or song) by tapping any key
on the LH-2 keyboard in "straight meter" (that is, with evenly spaced beats). Your
tapping will control both the tempo and the volume of the hymn's playback. In
essence, the Meter Play Method allows you to "conduct" the hymn. For step-by-
step instructions, please refer to page 18 of the LH-2 Owner’s Manual.
RHYTHM PLAY METHOD: You can play a hymn or song by tapping any key
with a prescribed rhythm that corresponds to the melody of the selected hymn or
song. The "Note Navigator" feature in the display will guide you in playing the
proper rhythm. For step-by-step instructions, please refer to page 19 of the LH-2
Owner’s Manual.
e. Using the INTRO Feature
Each hymn is equipped with its own introduction, or INTRO. The built-in
INTROs vary in length. Some are short (4 measures) and others are long (up to 8
measures). To start with an INTRO, press the Function Button that corresponds
with the PLAY INTRO box in the display. For step-by-step instructions, please
refer to page 21 of the LH-2 Owner’s Manual.
f. Using the PRELUDE MUSIC Feature
The unique Prelude Music feature allows anyone to play a preset sequence of
hymns for Prelude and Postlude. To activate Prelude Music, press the PRELUDE
button. When this button is pressed, a randomly selected hymn title and number
will be shown in the display. The ORGAN 1 sound (Soft Strings) will be
automatically selected and the hymn will play. Each hymn will be played twice.
Some hymns will change key the second time they are played. When the original
randomly-selected hymn finishes, the next hymn in the preset sequence will play.
Press the PRELUDE button again to stop the Prelude Music at any time.
For a list of pre-selected hymns included in the Prelude Music feature, please
refer to page 30 of the LH-2 Owner’s Manual.
