Chapter 2. Performance
■ Playing rhythm
The HP-7/3 contains 53 different rhythms.
The built-in rhythms can be sounded or stopped by pressing a button, in the same
way as the metronome.
By playing the rhythm instead of the metronome, you can enjoy performing as if you
were playing with a session-like feel.
