Playing the Demo Songs Before you start playing your new AR-80, you'll probably want to hear what the instrument is truly capable of doing. For this purpose, the AR-80 features a variety of special Demo Songs that showcase the dynamic Voices and Styles of the instrument. There are a total of 18 Demo Songs, each recorded in a different music style, and each corresponding to the 18 music styles of the Registration Menu. Though the Demo Songs are a wonderful introduction to the instrument for those just starting out, we suggest you listen to the Demo Songs from time to time. No matter what your level of Electone expertise, you'll find them to be a continuing source of inspiration for ways to best use and perform on your new AR-80. To select and play a Demo Song or Songs: 1. Press the DEMO button, located at the top right of the front panel. DEMO Within several seconds, the AR-80 automatically starts playing all Demo Songs in order, and the entire Demo repeats indefinitely.
