button is off. If the indicator is on, press the RECORD button to
turn it off.

• The first value of the beat can be set to a value of 2
through 6. The bell that normally indicates the first
beat of a measure does not sound while a value of 0 is
specified. All beats are indicated by a click sound. This
setting lets you practice with a steady beat, without
worrying about how many beats there are in each
measure.

Use one of the procedures below to set the tempo
to a value in the range of 30 to 255 beats per
minute.

down either key changes the setting at high speed.

CONTROL button, use the number input keys

to
input a two-digit or three-digit tempo value in the
range of 30 to 255. You can input a two digit or a three-
digit value. The value you input is applied to the
tempo when you release the CONTROL button. The
tempo setting does not change if you input a one-digit
value or a value that is outside of the allowable range.
4.
When you want to stop the metronome, press
METRONOME again.
• Pressing METRONOME again restarts the metronome
sound using the current beat and tempo setting.

before restarting the metronome, perform the above
procedure here.
