Using the Lesson Feature Using the Metronome The instrument features a built-in metronome (a device that keeps an accurate tempo) that is convenient for practicing. Press the [METRONOME] button to start the metronome. To stop the metronome, press the [METRONOME] button again. You can adjust the metronome tempo by pressing the [TEMPO/TAP] button (see next section). NOTE • You can set the time signa- ture and the volume of the Metronome (page 29 Function 018-019). SHORTCUT You can jump directly to the Function settings by pressing and holding the [METRONOME] button for longer than a second. NOTE • 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. Changing the Tempo Songs and Styles can be played at any tempo you desire-fast or slow. 1 Press the [TEMPO/TAP] button to call up the Tempo setting in the display. Current Tempo value 070 Tempo 2 Set the Tempo by using the number buttons [0]-[9], [+], [-]. Tap Start NOTE • Press the [+] and [-] buttons simultaneously to instantly reset the value to the default tempo. You can supply a count-in at any tempo you like to start playback.

NOTE • In the case of a Style, the selected Style rhythm will begin playing at first. The bass and chords will begin playing as soon as you play a chord in the auto accompaniment range of the keyboard (when auto accompaniment is on). You can change the tempo during Song or Style playback by pressing the button just twice. PSR-E233/YPT-230 Owner's Manual 27
