Page 8: Addressing All Of The Students
Addressing All Students To speak to and play for all students without hearing their instruments, and without them being able to hear each other, press the ALL button (the MIC will come on automatically). The students will not be able to hear each other speak or play but they will hear their own instruments. This is the key difference of engaging the ALL button versus switching on every student button. -

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8. But in an expanded lab this would have to be done for each bank. Yamaha has created a handy shortcut to get all student buttons on or off quickly. -

Page 12: Grouping Students
Grouping Students If simply pairing students isn’t flexible enough for your needs, the LC2 Lab allows you to create easily recallable groups. Think of a group as a kind of virtual practice room in which multiple students can meet at the same time. You can have as many as four groups (A/B/C/D) set up in the control unit at any given time. - Page 13 Example Two Students 1, 3, 5 and 7 are group A, students 2, 4, 6 and 8 are group B, students 9, 10, 11 and 12 are group C, and students 13, 14, 15 and 16 are group D. In the illustration below, you are working with GROUP A, which has a flashing light.
- Page 14 Example Four You are working with GROUP C, which has a flashing light. A, B and D are working by themselves. Example Five You are working with GROUP D, which has a flashing light. A, B and C are working by themselves.
