beats) of the time signature will be sounded by a
bell or by the normal metronome sound, or
whether there will be no accent (all weak beats).

[METRONOME] switch repeatedly to cycle
through the following settings.
While you are holding down the [MIDI] switch,
the indicator at the [MIDI] switch will light, and

On the C-550, the tempo will be "120," and the

power was turned off. When song 1 is recorded or
played back, the tempo will be set to the current
value.

procedure (reset), and then re-select the sound.
