Load and save up to 16 Registrations to User memory. The Registration buttons are conveniently located just above the keyboard.Performance Assistant Technology: Performance assistant technology is a feature from Yamaha that guarantees that you can't play a wrong melody note or chord.

Start playing melodies right away, even if you have never played a keyboard instrument before!Chord/Melody: Play the melody of the selected song with one finger on the right-hand section of the keyboard, and play chords on the left-hand section of the keyboard using the Chord type.Yamaha Education Suite: Helps you learn to playThe DGX520 has 30 built-in songs, plus 70 more on an included CD-ROM, for you to learn to play using the Yamaha Education Suite.

This allows the player to play the keyboard like a piano; for example a chord with the right hand and bass notes with the left.
