Mastering Your Favorite Songs
The Clavinova has several very useful practice features that help learn and master
recorded songs. Here, you’ll try out the Follow Lights function, and use the special guide
lamps to help you play the right notes.

You can use the powerful Repeat function to practice and master difficult parts. Simply specify a short
phrase you want to work on and repeat it until you’ve got it down.
1) While the song is playing back, press the [GUIDE] button once to turn the GUIDE function off.
2) Just before the desired phrase comes around, press the [REPEAT] button to designate the beginning point
for Repeat.
3) Just after the phrase finishes, press the [REPEAT] button again to designate the end point.
4) Turn the GUIDE function on again.

Press the SONG [START/STOP] button to stop playback.
Before Practicing
Before starting a practice
session, play back the entire
song (without canceling any
parts) and listen to it care-
fully. This will give you a
clear idea of how the song
should be played, and will
make your practice sessions
progress more smoothly. If
you want to hear only the
melody part, turn the
[TRACK 2] and [EXTRA
TRACKS] buttons off.
