In this example we’ll set up a 5/8 time signature.
1
Press and hold the [METRONOME ON/OFF] button for
longer than a second to select the function “Time Signa-
ture–Numerator”.
2
Use the dial to select the number of beats per measure.
A chime will sound on the first beat of each measure while the other
beats will click. All beats will simply click with no chime at the begin-
ning of each measure if you set this parameter to “00”.
The available range is from 0 through 60. Select 5 for this example.

Press the CATEGORY [ ] and [ ] buttons as many times
as necessary to select the beat length function “Time Sig-
nature–Denominator”.
4
Use the dial to select the beat length.
Select the required length for each beat: 2, 4, 8, or 16 (half note, quarter
note, eighth note, or 16
th note). Select 8 for this example.
