Return to the main page
If the [DISPLAY HOLD] switch is on, press the [EXIT] switch to return to the main
page.
Stopping the metronome
To stop the metronome, press the [METRONOME] switch once again.
The [METRONOME] switch indicator will turn off, and the metronome will stop.
On the SP-500, tempo is displayed as the number of quarter notes per minute. If you
select "6/8" as the time signature, you must input half the value of the "actual" (8th
note) tempo.
Example: For =96, set this to "48".
