Song Playback; Playback Of Songs - Yamaha PF-1000 Owner's Manual

Song Playback

Here's where all of the amazing voices, effects, rhythms, styles and other sophisticated features of
the PF-1000 come together — in songs!
As you heard in the Demos, the PF-1000 contains many built-in recordings. But there's more. Check out the included
disk or call up the Song Open (PRESET) display. And there's an even greater wealth of song material you can enjoy with
your PF-1000 — in commercially available software.
