Playing Each Hand
Separately
The internal songs allow you to select the performance
part that will be played back.
The left-hand performance of the internal songs is
assigned to the [Left] button, while the right-hand perfor-
mance is assigned to the [Right] button. The place where
each part of the performance is held is called a “track,” and
the [Left] and [Right] buttons are called “track buttons.”
Here’s how to practice each hand separately along with
the song.
First select the song that you want to play back (p. 11).
Selecting the part that you yourself will
play
1.
Press the [Left] or [Right] button.
The indicator of the button you’ve pressed goes out, and
the sound of the selected part will no longer be heard.
For example, if you want to practice the right hand, press
the [Right] button and get its indicator to go dark. When
you play back the song, the right-hand performance will
not sound.

button’s indicator will light, and the sound will be heard
once again.
Even while the song is playing, you can press the track
buttons to mute or un-mute the sound.
