Song Lesson

Lesson 2 — Waiting

In this lesson step, the PSR-175/172 waits for you to play the correct notes before

continuing playback of the song. This lets you practice reading the music at your

own pace. The notes to be played are shown in the display, one after another, as

you play them correctly.

1 Select one of the songs.

2 Select Lesson 2.

Press the [L] or [R] button (repeatedly, if necessary) until Lesson 2 is indi-

cated.

3 Play the appropriate melody or chord with the song.

After the lead-in, the song starts automatically, and the appropriate notes

appear in the display. In Lesson 2, play the correct notes at your own pace,

until you can master playing them in rhythm.

Lesson 3 — Minus One

This lesson step lets you practice one part of the song in rhythm at the proper

tempo. The PSR-175/172 plays back the song accompaniment with one part

muted (either the left part or the right)— letting you play and master the missing

part yourself. The notes you are to play are shown continuously in the display as

the song plays back.

1 Select one of the songs.

2 Select Lesson 3.

Press the [L] or [R] button (repeatedly, if necessary) until Lesson 3 is indi-

cated.

• Depending on the selected song,

the rhythm part may be muted for

Lesson 2.
