Using the metronome
The RD-170 contains a metronome you may want to use for practising. The beat (time signature) and tempo can be
changed to your liking. Furthermore, the metronome’s volume can be set in 128 steps.
(1) Press [METRONOME] to start the metronome.
(Press it again to stop the metronome when
you no longer need it.)
The metronome has three parameters you can
set as follows:
(2) Press and hold [METRONOME] until the
[GRAND¥PIANO] button (which is also called
[1]) lights (and buttons [2] and [3] flash).
The display shows the current metronome level.
(3) Use the [DEC÷NO]/[INC÷YES] buttons to set the
desired metronome volume (0~127). The
default value is “90”.
(4) Press [2] (it lights, while [1] and [3] flash) to
select the time signature parameter.
The display now shows the currently selected
time signature (probably 0-4).
(5) Use the [DEC÷NO]/[INC÷YES] buttons to set the
desired time signature.
The possibilities are:
(6) Press [3] (it lights, while [1] and [2] flash) to
select the tempo parameter.
The display now shows the current tempo
value.
(7) Use [DEC÷NO]/[INC÷YES] to set the metronome
tempo.
The setting range is = 40~210.
(8) Press [EXIT] to leave the metronome parame-
ters.
The TONE SELECT buttons return to “normal
operation”.
Note: These settings can be saved to the System
parameter memory (see p. 32).
