Using the Music Database
If you want to play in a certain genre of music but don’t know which style and voice settings
would be appropriate, simply select the desired genre from the Music Database. The DGX-500/
300 automatically makes all appropriate panel settings to let you play in that music style!
1 Press the [M.D.B.] (MUSIC DATABASE) button.
The MUSIC DATABASE menu appears in the display.
2 Select a ‘‘Music Database.’’
Use the numeric keypad to set the desired Music Database, or use the [+]/[-]
buttons to increase or decrease the value.
The DGX-500/300 has 208 panel setups in the Music Database and they are
divided into 12 different categories.
In this example, we’ll select #208 “Xmas Walz” and play the song “Silent
Night.” (The sheet music is provided on the next page.)
3 Play the chords with your left hand and the melody lines
with your right hand along with the music.
As soon as you play a chord with your left hand, the style starts.
For information on how to enter chords, see ‘‘Multi Fingering’’ on page 47.
