Playing the VIMA
You can play back a preset (internal) song or a song from a CD-ROM made for the VIMA
(VIMA TUNES) with the melody at a lower volume. This is called the “Melody Guide”
function. Until you’ve learned the melody, you can play back the song with the melody
at a lower volume, and practice your performance.
Once you’ve learned the melody, use the Melody Mute function (p. 41) to perform with
the melody completely muted.
1. Prepare to play back the desired song.
If you want to play back a song from a CD-ROM, insert the CD-ROM into the CD drive
(p. 22).
2. Select the song that you want to play (p. 19, p. 22).
3. Press the MELODY [GUIDE] button so it’s lit.
The Melody Guide function is turned on.

4. Press the [PLAY/STOP] button to play back the song.
When the song plays back, the volume of the melody will be temporarily lowered.
While listening to the song, play along with the melody. The melody will be heard at a
lower volume, so you can use it as a guide.
If the volume of the melody does not decrease when you press the MELODY [GUIDE]
button, change the melody channel setting as it will depend on the song.
→ “Changing the melody channel (Melody Channel)” (p. 57)
To cancel the Melody Guide function
1. Press the MELODY [GUIDE] button to turn it off.
The Melody Guide function is turned off.
When you play back the song, the melody will return to its original volume.
