Guide Control The Clavinova has a special Guide function which allows you to practice by using the appropriate disk software. The "piano roll" display and the keyboard guide lamp indicate which keys you should play, and when you should play them. You can even practice at your own pace since the Clavinova pauses playback of the accompaniment until you play the correct keys. The Guide function can also be used during playback of the "4. GUIDE Demo" song in the Demo mode. Press one of the GUIDE CONTROL buttons during playback of the "4. GUIDE Demo" song in the Demo mode, and use the Guide function to play the melody part.

Beginning players should practice first with Easy Play, then go on to Next Note, then Sound Repeat. GUIDE CONTROL EASY PLAY NEXT NOTE SOUND REPEAT s Practicing the Timing: Easy Play Since the Easy Play method lets you practice only the timing of the notes, you can play anywhere on the keyboard. The melody will play back smoothly when you play with the correct timing. (The accompaniment plays back normally in tempo.) s Practicing the Notes: Next Note The Next Note method lets you check which notes to play by looking at the piano roll display and the keyboard guide lamps. Since the Clavinova waits to play the accompaniment until you play the correct note, you can practice at your own pace. The keyboard guide lamps indicate the timing in which to play, by changing from lit-up to flashing. When the keyboard guide lamps do not flash... • The guide lamps may not flash in the case of a few songs because of a special guide system. In case of such songs, however, you can switch to the Next Note method so that the lamps flash, if you like. See the "Other Guide-related Functions" on page 103. 100 CVP-98/96/600 100
