Beat Master - Panasonic SX-KC211 Owner's Manual

Beat Master

BEAT MASTER is a fun feature that helps you develop your sense of rhythm while you enjoy playing, just like com-
peting with a friend in a game.
Think of yourself as the student, and the instrument your teacher. First, the teacher "claps" out the rhythm, and
then you try to mimic it.

Your rhythm lesson uses the four pad buttons. As the instrument models the rhythm, the corresponding pad indica-
tors light. Then you try to tap the same pad buttons, with your fingers, using the same timing.
But it's more than just a rhythm lesson—as you tap the pad buttons, a melody is played in time with your rhythm!
With BEAT MASTER you play a game of musical Questions & Answers with the instrument.
