Step 4 Lesson
17
Grade
The PSR-262 has a built-in evaluation function that moni-
tors your practicing and — like a real teacher — tells you
how well you did each exercise. Four grades are assigned,
depending on your performance: “OK,” “Good,” “Very
Good,” and “Excellent.”

Talking
This feature “talks” to you through the speakers,
“announcing” the Grade comments as well as the titles of
the Lesson steps.

Changing the Tempo
Naturally, you can change the tempo (speed) of the song
to your liking, letting you slow down difficult passages
and bring up the tempo gradually until you master them at
normal speed.

tempo.

• The PSR-262 also has a convenient Tap Tempo function that allows
you to “tap” a new tempo in real time. (See page 44.)
This step lets you work on the timing of the notes. In Les-
son 1, the particular note you play on the keyboard is
unimportant. The PSR-262 checks your timing and how
rhythmically “tight” your playing is.

In Lesson 2, you practice playing the notes correctly as
they appear in the display notation. The accompaniment
pauses and waits for you to play the notes correctly before
it continues.

In Lesson 3, one of the parts is muted, and you practice
the missing part in time with the rhythm.

Lesson 4 is just like Lesson 3, except that the parts for
both hands are muted, letting you practice the missing
parts in time with the rhythm.
