The Metronome Quick Guide

A chime will sound on the first beat of each measure while the other beats will click. All beats will simply click with no chime at the beginning of each measure if you set this parameter to “00”. The available range is from 0 through 60. Select 5 for this exam- ple.

The metronome time signa- ture will synchronize to a style or song that is playing, so these parameters cannot be changed while a style or song is playing.
