Performing in Live Mode

The RMP-12 provides a “Live mode” that lets you lock the function
of buttons that you would not use during a live performance, so
that the metronome will not start sounding even if you
inadvertently press a button.

1.

Hold down the [INST] button for about two
seconds.

The LIVE icon will light, and the RMP-12 will enter Live mode.
The display will indicate the number and name of the
currently selected memory button.

Buttons that can be used in Live mode

[1]–[4] buttons: Select sounds
[POWER] button: Hold down (for approximately two
seconds) to turn off the power
* Live mode will be cancelled the next time you turn on
the power.
Press the select knob: Mute function (see “Muting the
Sound of the Pad”)
Nothing will happen when you operate a button other than
those listed above, or turn the select knob.

2.

To cancel Live mode, hold down the [INST] button
(for approximately two seconds).

The LIVE icon will go dark.

The Auto Power-off function (p. 17) will not operate in
Live mode.
You can prevent the pad from producing sound in Live mode
(Mute).

You can’t mute an already-playing sound.

1.

Press and hold down the select knob.

The display will indicate “<MUTE>.”
As long as you hold down the select knob, striking the pad
will not produce sound.

2.

To cancel muting, release the select knob.

Now the pad will produce sound when struck.

While holding down the select knob, turn it
towards the “+” at least one third of a turn.

The display will blink <MUTE>.
Release the select knob.
Striking the pad will not produce sound.
