Setting Song-related Parameters — Song Settings
Quick Start
On some commercially avail-
able song data, certain set-
tings related to the song
(such as voice selection, vol-
ume, etc.) are recorded to
the first measure, before the
actual note data. When
Quick Start is set to “ON,”
the PSR-A1000 reads all ini-
tial non-note data of the
song at the highest possible
speed, then automatically
slows down to the appropri-
ate tempo at the first note.
This allows you to start play-
back as quickly as possible,
with a minimum pause for
reading of data.

POSITION display (page 69).
