Using the Metronome
The built-in metronome produces a bell sound for the first
beat of each measure and a click sound for the remaining
beats of the measure. The metronome is the perfect tool for
practicing without accompaniment parts (rhythm).
NOTE
The metronome sound is actually a type of rhythm.
Because of this, you cannot sound the metronome at
the same time another rhythm is sounding.
Accompaniment sounds (chords, bass, etc.) do not
sound while a metronome rhythm is being used, even if
the MODE button setting is CASIO CHORD, FINGERED,
or FULL RANGE CHORD. Because of this, you should
press the MODE button until all of the lamps are off.
1
Press the METRONOME button.
This selects a 4-beat metronome.
2
Use the [+] and [] buttons or number buttons to
specify the rhythm number that corresponds to the
number of beats you want to select.
NOTE
Specifying a beat value of 0 causes the metronome to
sound clicks only, without the bell sound at the beginning
of each measure. This setting lets you practice with a
steady beat.

This starts the metronome.
