Select “rnd”: Play all SMF/External songs in the USB storage device continuously in
random order.

Useful Playback Functions
Turning part playback on and off
When you select a song on the Clavinova, the indicators for parts that contain
data (one of
[RIGHT] [LEFT] or both) are lit in green. While the Clavinova is playing or
stopped, pressing these part buttons turns off the indicators, and the data on those
parts is not played. Pressing the part buttons toggles part playback on and off.
Starting playback automatically when you start playing the keyboard
(Sync Start)
You can start playback as soon as you start playing the keyboard. This is called the
“Sync Start” function.
To engage the Sync Start function, press the
SONG [PLAY/PAUSE] button while hold-
ing down the SONG [STOP] button. The SONG [PLAY/PAUSE] lamp will flash at the
current tempo.
(Repeat the previous operation to disengage the Sync Start function.)
Playback will then start as soon as you begin playing on the keyboard.
This function is useful when you wish to match the timing of the beginning of the play-
back sound and the start of your own performance.
Assigning the PLAY/PAUSE function to the left pedal
The left pedal can also be assigned to song play/pause operation via the “Pedal Play/
Pause” (page 51). This is convenient for starting playback of the song anytime after you
have started playing.
