Playing Along with a Song
You can play a internal song or SMF music file with the volume of the melody part lowered.
Until you’ve learned the melody, it may be helpful to listen to the melody at a lower volume and use
it as a guide for your own playing.
Once you’ve learned the melody, use Mute function (p. 99) to silence the melody while you play.
The Guide function won’t work with a music CD and an audio/MP3 format song.
