Learn to Play
There will be a short break before you
need to play the next note. But it might
not be too long to be ready!
Short Break
A score of 60 or higher means you pass!
Your reward is a round of applause... or a rousing ovation for an even higher score!
During normal Song Mode playback you can use the PART buttons to mute the orchestra parts. When you’ve mastered a song and earned your
three stars, select the Song mode and have fun playing along with the orchestra.
If playing with both hands is difficult, it’s OK to practice one hand at a time. Sometimes it’s the fastest way to learn.
Note names are written on the score in some steps. If you encounter notes you’re not familiar with elsewhere, feel free to write in the note
names yourself.
Listen to the lead-in carefully so you’ll know when to start playing.
If you’d like to practice at a slower tempo, simply press the [TEMPO/TAP] button and use the [-] button to reduce the tempo until it is easy to
follow.
Depending on the selected step the metronome may initially be ON or OFF. You can also switch it ON or OFF yourself.
The Waiting function makes it easy to find the notes to be played on the keyboard. This can be a great way to prepare for a lesson.
You can use the [PAUSE] button to take a break during longer steps. You’ll still get the appropriate number of points when you finish the step.
Use the “Song Volume” function to reduce the accompaniment volume, or the “M.Volume” function to increase the keyboard volume to hear
what you’re playing more clearly.

Wherever you see a lead-in like this
