Note:

When

Now,

when

you

one

of

the

keys

on

the

keyboard,

you

will

hear

the

sound

of

an

assigned

percussion

instrument.

This

feature

allows

you

to

enjoy

playing

simple

drum

solos

in

with

the

The

drum

sounds

are

assigned

to

the

keys

on

the

Lower

as

shown

by

the

picture

above

each

key.

;

The

keys

of

the

will

also

produce

drum

sounds--

even

though

them.

The

you

which

Note

that

“G2”

means

the
