Controlling Playback of a Song
As the song plays, you can adjust the tempo, play or sing along with on the keyboard, and even turn
on/off the different instrument parts (tracks) in the song.
The status of the song parts is displayed at the bottom of the LCD screen. You will see the parts
referred to as the CPOs four Parts + Style if the song was created on the CP, or as Channels (ch 1-16)
if the song is a MIDI file. Displayed above each part is its current status:
PLAYThe part will be heard when you play the song.
MUTEThe part has data, but it wonOt be heard when you play the song.
� � � �The part has no data to play.
Y Transpose and Octave Shift are available when a song is playing. Octave Shift affects only the
notes you play Olive� on the keyboard, not the music playing from the song file. Transpose can
be applied separately to the keyboard sound and the song sounds. This lets you play the keyboard
in your preferred key along with a song recorded in a different (or more difficult) key.
Use the front panelOs dedicated TRANSPOSE buttons to affect the keyboard sound. Use the
Song Transpose option (R4 and R5) in the Disk Song Play menu to affect the song data.
