Playing the Piano Setting the Operation Confirmation Sounds Because of the simple, piano-like design of this instrument, there are a minimum of panel controls, and most settings are made using the keys of the keyboard. When you turn a function on or off, or change a setting, the instrument produces a sound to confirm the change. There are three types of sounds used: an ascending sound for on, a descending sound for off, and clicks for other settings. In the Metronome setting (page 17), a numeric value is read out when a tempo is specified by a three-digit value using the keyboard. For the list of functions assigned to the buttons and keys, see "Quick Operation Guide" (separate sheet). Turning the Operation Confirmation Sounds on Press the A♯-1 key while holding down the [DEMO/SONG] and the [PIANO/ VOICE] simultaneously. Turning the Operation Confirmation Sounds off Press the A-1 key while holding down the [DEMO/SONG] and the [PIANO/ VOICE] simultaneously.
