Guide menu for keyboard practice
• Follow Lights
When this is selected, Song playback pauses, waiting for you to play the notes correctly. When you play the cor-
rect notes, Song playback continues. Follow Lights was developed for the Yamaha Clavinova series. This func-
tion is used for practicing purposes, with built-in lamps on the keyboard indicating the notes to be played. Even
though the Tyros5 does not have these lamps, you can use the same function by following the indications in the
displayed notation with the Song Score function.
• Any Key
With this function, you can play the melody of a Song just by pressing a single key (any key is OK) in time with
the rhythm. Song playback pauses and waits for you to play any key. Simply play a key on the keyboard in time
with the music and Song playback continues.
• Your Tempo
The same as Follow Lights, except that Song playback matches the speed at which you play.
Guide menu for singing
• Karao-Key
This function lets you control the Song playback timing with just one finger, while you sing along. This is useful
for singing to your own performance. Song playback pauses, waiting for you to sing. Simply play any key on the
keyboard (playing the keyboard produces no sound) and Song playback continues.
