Using SYNCHRO

The Concertmate 970’s SYNCHRO feature lets you synchronize the start of an auto-rhythm with the beginning of your music.

After you select and enter an auto- rhythm, press SYNCHRO/FILL-IN, then begin playing the keyboard. The rhythm automatically starts to play when you press any key within the first 11/2 octaves of the lower end of the keyboard (the first 18 keys from the left side of the keyboard).
