Using Various Functions

■Changing the Time Signature

In this example we'll set up a 3/8 time signature.

Press and hold the [METRONOME] but-
ton for longer than a second.
The currently selected time signature is dis-
played.
Number of beats
per measure
2
Use the dial to select the number of
beats per measure.
When the Bell setting is on, the Bell will sound
on the first beat of each measure, while a met-
ronome "click" will sound on all others. You
can set the time signature from 01 to 60. Select
3 for this example.
NOTE
• When playing the Song or Style the beat value cannot be changed,
since the beat is synchronized to the selected Song or Style.
