The place where each sound is recorded is called a track. Regarding Demo Songs in the HP 245, what is played with the right hand is stored in Track 1, while what is played with the left hand is recorded in Track 2. This is very convenient for piano lessons, since you can play each hand separately. The Demo Songs include pieces for four-hand performances. In a four-handed piece, each Track has a different player, and therefore, you can enjoy four-handed performance by yourself. Metronome . Beat Tampa [ ° ) a- o All Song Play Song 1.
