Metronome (Beat Tempo Memory)
You can create and save irregular meters by using Beat • Tempo Memory function.
Press the
BEAT • TEMPO MEMORY [MEMORY] button to set the
rhythm style to the “Beat • Tempo Memory” metronome mode. This will
move the cursor to the memory number.
Press the
[BEAT] button to move the cursor to the beat area.
Use the CURSOR [L][R] buttons to move the cursor and edit the memory.
“M1”–“M8”: Selects between memory numbers while the cursor is on this. Either change this with the [-]/[+] buttons,
or select the number directly by pressing one of the keys (D5 – A5) corresponding to the numbers.
A single memory can contain irregular meters with up to eight measures. The variable range for the numerator is 1 – 9
for the first measure, and 0 – 9 for the second and subsequent measures. If the numerator is 0, the metronome will not
proceed to the next measure. The variable value for the denominator is 4 or 8.
There are no special operations required to save or load memories. A memory being edited will be saved automatically.
Selecting a memory number will load it automatically.
To initialize the contents of the selected memory number, press the [DELETE] button while during editing.
NOTE
When using Beat • Tempo Memory, the playback position will be underlined.
Use the “HD-300 Assistant” iOS app (page 35) to create and send irregular meters using the touch screen on the smart device.
Operation is the same as in the simple metronome mode (page 23).
