Reference Section
When performing fast songs on Concert Magic, it is sometimes easier to
tap two different keys with two fingers alternating. This allows you to
play twice as fast as you can using only one finger on one key.
Adjust the relative volume of the melody notes and accompaniment
notes with the DUAL BALANCE slider.
CONCERT MAGIC SONG ARRANGEMENT TYPES
Each of the 176 Concert Magic songs is arranged in one of three
arrangement types.
EASY BEAT
These are the easiest songs to play. To perform them, simply tap out a
constant steady beat on any key on your piano keyboard.
MELODY PLAY
These songs are also quite easy to play, especially if they are familiar to
you. To perform them, tap out the rhythm of the melody on any one of
the keys on your piano keyboard. Singing along as you tap the rhythm
can be helpful.
SKILLFUL
These songs range in difficulty from moderately difficult to difficult. To
perform them, tap out the rhythm of both the melody and the
accompaniment notes on any of the keys on your piano keyboard.
It may require some practice to successfully play these selections. Even
skilled players will enjoy the challenge of the skillful pieces. Try listening
to these songs first, and then try to tap out the rhythms that you hear.
STEADY BEAT
With Steady Beat you can play any Concert Magic song by just tapping
any key with a steady beat regardless of which arrangement type the song
is.
First you need to change the Concert Magic mode from NORMAL to
STEADY BEAT. Press and hold the CONCERT MAGIC button. Use the
VALUE button to change the mode.
