The keyboard features 300 different tones. Press the TONE button, then use the numeric keypad (0-9) to enter the desired tone number. Refer to the tone list in the full instruction manual for available options.

6. Teaching Modes

The RIF6 keyboard offers three teaching modes to assist with learning:

• Teach 1 (One Key): Allows you to play any key to advance the melody. Focuses on rhythm and timing without requiring correct notes.
• Teach 2 (Follow): The keyboard waits for you to play the correct note before advancing the melody. This helps with note recognition.
• Teach 3 (Ensemble): The keyboard plays the accompaniment, and you play the melody. If you don't play the correct note within 3 seconds, the keyboard will play it for you.

To activate a teaching mode, press the corresponding TEACH 1, TEACH 2, or TEACH 3 button, then select a song using the numeric keypad.

7. Recording and Playback

Press the REC button to enter recording mode. Play your desired melody. Press PLAY to listen to your recorded performance.
