Play your way
The performance possibilities of the Yamaha SHS-300 Sonogenic Keytar are almost unlimited. You can play by yourself, using the 32-note polyphonic synth, or you can play along to your favorite tracks using the JAM function. Simply connect your smart device to your keytar using Bluetooth. Next, open the free Chord Tracker app and select any song stored in your device. Your keytar will automatically analyze and reprogram your keyboard to match the key of your song. No matter which of the keys you've hit, you'll sound like a member of the band. To add a bit more flavor to your sound, engage the onboard vibrato and use the pitch bend wheel for expressive performance. With JAM mode, you only have to worry about playing the right rhythm. The Sonogenic will do the rest.
