Metronome The metronome is a timing aid when recording or playing back patterns 
and songs and can be set to a wide variety of different beats. The 
metronome produces an accented click on the first beat of each measure 
and a softer click on other beats. The following metronome beat options are 
available:
OO
OO
The higher metronome 
speeds are useful when recording 
a fast part since you may slow 
the tempo way down and still 
hear where you are in the 
pattern.
The metronome setting is NOT saved with the pattern.
 To Set the Metronome
1. Press the Pattern Edit button. The Pattern Edit menu screen displays
