Adjusting Accomp Volume; Adjusting The Rhythm Tempo; Turning Rhythm Parts On And Off - Casio LD-80 User Manual

Adjusting Accomp volume

The ACCOMP VOL. buttons control the volume level of the rhythm only.
They do not affect the volume of sounds you play on the drum pads, so you
can adjust Accomp volume to obtain good balance between your drum play
and accompaniments.
• Note that the Accomp volume setting also affects the metronome (page E-
20).
To adjust Accomp volume
Press the upper ACCOMP VOL. button to increase Accomp volume, or the
lower button to decrease it.
• As soon as you press an ACCOMP VOL. button, the display changes to
show the current Accomp volume setting as a value in the range of 0
(muted) to 9 (maximum).
• You can adjust Accomp volume while rhythm play is ongoing or stopped.
• Holding down either ACCOMP VOL. button changes the setting at high
speed.
