VA-76 – Using live vocals
1. See “Metronome Output” for how to select the dis-
play page with the metronome options.
2. Select an option in the Count-In section:
OFF— The count-in function is off.
1Bar, 2Bar— Whenever you start Arranger playback,
the metronome counts in 1 or 2 bars before the
selected Music Style pattern starts playing.
Note: The Count-In function can be used independently of
the metronome. There is thus no need to activate the metro-
nome in order to hear the count-in.

mono.
The audio signal received by the Audio In part is
transmitted to the OUTPUT 1 and PHONES sockets.
