Press the [LESSON MODE] button to select Lesson 1.
Song playback will begin automatically when you select Lesson 1.
Play the note shown immediately below the triangular score marker (▼). The dot
on the graphic keyboard indicates the key you need to press to play that note.
When you play the correct note the marker will move to the next note you need
to play. The song will wait until you play the correct note.
Each time the [LESSON MODE] button is pressed the lesson modes are selected in
sequence: Lesson 1 ➔ Lesson 2 ➔ Lesson 3 ➔ Off ➔ Lesson 1 …. The currently
selected mode is shown in the upper right corner of the display.

The hidden ( ) areas of the keyboard can be brought into view by pressing the

61 keys of the keyboard’s range are shown on the display. The DGX-505 actually
has 88 keys, while the DGX-305 has 76 keys. In some songs that include very high
or low notes, those notes may fall outside the displayed range and may not be
shown on the display. In such cases an “over” indicator appear to the left or right of
the graphic keyboard. Use the [+] or [-] button to shift the keyboard left or right so
you can see the notes (the ● marker will appear on the appropriate key in the
display). Notes that actually fall outside the keyboard’s range cannot be used in the
lesson.
