Song Playback
The song playback features of the TYROS let you play MIDI song (sequence) data. This includes commercially
available song data on floppy disk (GM- or XG-compatible), and performances you’ve recorded yourself with the Song
Recording features (page 54) and saved to one of the drives. In addition, the TYROS can display music notation and
lyrics, and you can use the sophisticated Guide functions to practice the keyboard and your singing as well.
This section explains detailed settings about song playback that are not covered in “Quick Guide.”

— and even how to sing it with the correct pitches.
