Chapter 3 Some Handy Features
Adjusting the tempo with the Value [+] and [-] buttons or the dial
When the tempo is displayed at the upper-left area of the screen, you can use
the dial to adjust the tempo.
• Turn the dial clockwise to speed up the tempo.
• Turn the dial counterclockwise to make the tempo slower.
• The Value [-] [+] buttons do the same thing as the Tempo [-] [+] buttons.
■ Determining the Tempo Using the Selected
Interval
You can set the tempo according to the timing with which you tap the screen
or the timing at which you count into the microphone. This feature is called
“Tap Tempo.” By using the Tap Tempo function, you can quickly set the
tempo you are thinking of, without specifying the tempo in numerical
terms.

Automatic Accompaniment
