Adjust the volume and beat (time signature) with the buttons

© The available Beat settings are: 0/4, 2/4, 3/4~7/4, 3/8,
6/8, 9/8, 12/8. The metronome always uses the time sig-
nature of the last Music Style you selected, so that you
could set the Beat by selecting a Style with the appropri-
ate time signature.

when you are using the Composer function.

when setting the touch as you play the keyboard.

screen.
Each time you move the arrow, the touch level
changes. The velocity sensitivity and the arrow cor-
respond in the following way:

_Little strength is required to play fortissi-
mo.
Heavy _ Select this setting for maximum expres-
siveness: even small variations of the
force with which you strike a key pro-
duce audible changes. The trade-off is,
however, that you have to strike the keys
forcefully to achieve the maximum vol-
ume.

tuned slightly lower, while high notes are tuned
slightly higher. At power on, this parameter is set to

sharp.

correct.
