The metronome lets you play and practice along with a steady
beat to help keep you on tempo.
1.
Press 6 .
This starts the metronome.
2.
Press 6 again to stop the metronome.
You can configure the metronome to use a bell sound for the
first beat of each measure of the song you are playing.
• You can specify 0, or a value from 2 to 6 as the number of
beat per measure.
• When playing a built-in song, the beats per measure setting
(which determines when the bell sounds) is configured
automatically for the currently selected song.
1.
Hold down 6 until the beats per measure
setting screen appears on the display.
• If you do not perform any operation for after the beats
per measure setting screen appears, the display will
return to the screen displayed before you pressed
6 .
2.
Use bo (10-key) to enter the number of beats
per measure.
• The bell will not sound if you specify 0 for this setting. In
this case, all beats are indicated by a click sound. This
setting lets you practice with a steady beat, without
worrying how many beats there are in each measure.
Use the following procedure to change the tempo of the
metronome.
1.
Press bn .
Use y (slower) and t (faster) to change the tempo
setting. Holding down either button changes the setting at
high speed.
• Pressing y and t at the same time will initialize the
tempo setting in accordance with the currently selected
song or rhythm.
• Pressing bn causes the tempo value to flash on the
display. While the tempo value is flashing, you can use
bo (10-key) to change it.
Note that you must input leading zeros, so 89 is input
as 089.
• The tempo value will stop flashing if you do not perform
any operation for a short while.
The metronome volume setting is changed automatically with
the volume level of the currently selected Auto
Accompaniment or song. The metronome volume cannot be
adjusted independently.
• For information about changing the Auto Accompaniment
volume, see page E-31.
• For information about changing the song volume, see page
E-17.
• You cannot adjust the balance between the metronome
and note volume during Auto Accompaniment and built-in
tune play.
