Press the [PLAY/STOP] button to start
playback.
When playback has started, the display will show
the current measure number for MIDI songs or the
elapsed time for audio songs.
You can continue to play the keyboard and also
change its Voice assignment(s) when songs are
playing.
Unplayable songs
If the lights in both the [RIGHT] and [LEFT] but-
tons go out when you select a song, this indicates
that the song in question contains no data and can-
not be played.
Setting the playback volume (MIDI or Audio
songs)
Press the [FUNCTION] button while a song is
playing to show the current playback volume. You
can then change the volume using the [-/NO] and
[+/YES] buttons.
Adjusting the tempo of MIDI songs
You can adjust a MIDI song’s playback tempo
using the [-/NO] and [+/YES] buttons with the
[TEMPO] button held down. To restore the default
tempo, press the [-/NO] and [+/YES] buttons
together with the [TEMPO] button held down.
Rewind and fast forward
To rewind a song during playback, press and hold
the [-/NO] button; to fast forward, press and hold
the [+/YES] button.

Press the [PLAY/STOP] button once
again when you want to stop the song.
If you selected a specific song using its song num-
ber in Step 2 above, it will stop automatically after
playing once to the end.
Reverb and effect types during playback
(MIDI songs)
Whenever you select a song or a new one starts during
continuous playback, the most suitable reverb and
effect types will be selected automatically.
MIDI songs with sounds not found on the
instrument
When you play MIDI songs requiring instruments that
are not found on your digital piano (such as XG or
GM songs), they may not sound as originally
intended. If MIDI channels 1 and 2 use piano sounds
in such a case, you can mute all other channels (3 to
16) by setting the song playback channels to “1&2”
using the corresponding Function parameter (page
40). This should allow for a better rendition of the
song.
Import Songs that cannot be selected or
loaded
If an Import Song from a USB flash drive cannot be
selected or loaded, you may need to change the char-
acter code using the corresponding Function parame-
ter (page 40).
• If the selected song contains data, the [RIGHT] and/or [LEFT] button will
light up.
• Songs can be played together with the metronome or a rhythm track. In
such a case, the metronome or rhythm track will turn off when the song is
stopped. In the case of MIDI songs, your digital piano will play the cur-
rently selected backing track, not the one used when recording. With audio
songs, meanwhile, the currently selected backing track as well as the one
recorded will be played together.
