Listening to Songs
Here’s how to change the tempo of a song.
If a song is too fast for you to play or sing along comfortably, you can slow it down to a
more comfortable tempo.
Changing the tempo will not affect the pitch. You can also change the tempo even while
the song is playing.

1. Turn the [TEMPO] knob to adjust the tempo.
Turning the [TEMPO] knob toward the left (“SLOW”) will slow down the tempo, and turning it
toward the right (“FAST”) will speed up the tempo.
You can adjust the tempo in a range between half and double the original tempo (however,
limited to a range between 20 and 500 quarter notes per minute).
If you set the [TEMPO] knob to the “STANDARD” position, the song will play at its
standard tempo.
You can’t change the tempo of a music CD song.

NOTE
What is the standard tempo?
The standard tempo is the tempo that is most appropriate for the song. Each song has its
own standard tempo setting.
