101 Playing live

Pick a style, play chords, and the band follows.

1. Pick a style Switch Polly on. On the Home page, turn KNOB 1 (Style) to Funk.
2. Play chords Hold three keys or more, then press PLAY. Polly names the chord, and the band plays it. The chord keeps playing when you let go. Play Em7 and A7, two bars each.
3. Go busier Hold HOME and press black key 4. At the next bar, a fill plays, and then the band moves to the busier Groove B.
4. Come back down Hold HOME and press black key 4 again. A fill plays, and the band goes back to the calmer Groove A.
5. End it Hold HOME and press black key 5. The band plays the Ending and then stops by itself.
