tempo value. The playback tempo can be set to any value from 40 to 250
beats per minute.
■To exit Tempo mode hold [MODE] and press [PATTERN].
CHANGING THE BACKING CHORD.
You can change the chord root and chord type for the backing while the pattern

play in the designated chord.

pressing [CHORD]. A small, flashing black inverted triangle indicator will
appear above the Chord Root in the upper left area of the LCD.
