USB TO DEVICE
Terminal
Insert a USB flash
memory in the USB TO DEVICE terminal on the instrument. It would
let you save or load the registered settings and user songs
created on the instrument.
Easy Song
Arranger
In addition to each
song's default style, you can select any other style to play the
song with the Easy Song Arranger feature. This means that you
can play a song that is normally a ballad, for example, as a
bossa nova, as a hip-hop tune, etc. You can create totally
different arrangements by changing the style with which a song
is played. You can also change the song's melody voice and the
keyboard voice for a complete change of image.
Easy Performance
with Music Notation Display
When you play back a
song, the corresponding score will be shown on the display as
the song plays. This is a great way to learn how to read music.
If the song contains lyric and chord data*, the lyrics and
chords will also appear on the score display. * No lyrics or
chords will appear on the display if the song you are using with
the score display function does not contain the appropriate
lyric and chord data.
Yamaha Education
Suite
You can select song you
like and use it for a left-hand, right-hand, or both-hands
lesson. You can also use songs (only SMF format 0) downloaded
from the Internet and saved to flash memory. During the lesson
you can play as slowly as you like, and you can even play wrong
notes. Song playback will slow down to a speed you can handle.
It's never too late to start learning!
