* When you want to play melodic parts on a keyboard, the app Chord Tracker’s “Melody Cancellation” function
may be useful because the function suppresses the vocal part of the song. For this operation, refer to the
included manual within the app.

NOTE
As soon as song playback begins, the app starts transmitting chord information to the keyboard as MIDI data.
Both the chord information and the selected Jam mode determine the sound which is produced when the keys
are pressed.
Adjusting the volume
Use the controls on both the smart device and the instrument to adjust the volume.

off the Jam function (unlit) on the instrument and close the app on the smart device.
