PRACTICE & PLEASURE

The visual lesson system by CASIO is based upon the principle of learning by playing. The lighting keys are at the core of this concept, accompanied by useful playing aides. In the 2008 model generation, the lighting key lesson system has once again been improved decisively. As in traditional music education, the rehearsal tune is now divided into individual phrases and then studied in steps: Step 1: LISTENING The pupil repeatedly hears the relevant phrase and develops a feeling for the tune. Step 2: SEEING The player follows the lighting keys, the correct ngering is shown on the large LCD. Playback will be delayed until the right key is played. Step 3: MEMORISING The player plays the phrase by heart. Only when no key is pressed will the lighting key function become active after a while.
