A brief explanation of the terms above.
Yamaha Midi Songs And Files
| MIDI File playback | Essentially a music file that contains note data. This file will trigger notes inside the Yamaha instrument to playback the music. The benefit of MIDI files, is that you can change the tempo (slow down or speed up), without loss of quality. |
| Score Display | From the MIDI File, the Yamaha digital piano or via the Smart Pianist App – can produce a notated display. |
| Guide Lights | The CVP range have Guide Light function and CSP has Streaming Light function. These essentially guide you as to which note to play next. |
| Wait with Guide | When the Guide function is activated, the Yamaha digital piano can wait for the correct note to be played, before moving into the next note. Essentially, checking that you are playing the correct notes in your performance. |
| A-B Loop | This function repeats a section of music. For example, you might have trouble with bar-4 to bar-6. Set the A-B Loop to repeat this section until you can play this section perfect. |
