Metronome
This parameter has three settings: On, Rec or Off. The default setting is Off, or no metronome. If you choose
On the metronome sounds while playing or recording. To hear the metronome only while recording, choose
Rec.
In Function Mode, press the Select▲ or ▼ button until the display reads
METRO: OFF (factory default). To change to On press the +Next button once.
The metronome sounds while playing or recording. To change to Rec press the
+Next button again. This allows you to hear the metronome only while record-
ing. Pressing the Prev- +Next button pair will reset the Metronome back to Off
(factory default)

Rec Rhythm
This parameter controls whether a rhythm pattern plays during recording. The default for this parameter is Off. If
you record a song and want the rhythm pattern recorded as well, be sure to change this parameter to On.
Press the Select▲ or ▼ button until the display reads REC RHYTHM: OFF
(factory default). To change to On press the +Next button once. Press Prev-
to turn Rec Rhythm to Off.
The Rec Rhythm setting is remembered across power cycles.
Local Control
When you play the MPG200 keyboard you hear the resident or "local" voices, because this parameter is normally
set to On. When using your MPG200 with an external sequencer or computer, turn this setting to Off to avoid
creating a MIDI loop which may result in stuck notes or "echoes".
Auto Power Off
This energy-saving feature will automatically shut off power to the unit after a period of inactivity. Simply turning the
power switch off and on will power up the unit once again. This allows you to reduce overall power consumption,
and also extends the lifetime of the instrument. Press the Select▲ or ▼ button until the display reads AutoPow-
erOff. Setting options are Enabled or Disabled.
Auto Power Off Time
With Auto Power Off Enabled, you may set the lenth of inactivity time until power is shut down. Use the Prev-
+Next buttons to select your setting. Options are 15 min, 30 min, 1 hour, 2 hours or 4 hours.
Once the AutoPowerOff inactivity period has begun, any human interaction (playing the keyboard, etc.) will reset
the timer.
