Adjusting The Tempo 

There is a four-beat indicator above the TEMPO buttons that indicates the tempo

The tempo can be adjusted before or during rhythm style play by pressing the

tempo will be set to that default value. If you change style during play, the tempo 

will keep its current value, press the –/+ TEMPO buttons simultaneously to set the 

tempo to the new styles default value.

immediately with the percussive rhythm. Press the START/STOP button again to 

stop the accompaniment.
Starting With An Introduction — All of the 100 styles can be started with a 

appropriate introduction. As soon as you press the INTRO/ENDING button, the 

rhythm of the introduction will start followed by the main pattern. Press the START/

STOP button to stop the accompaniment or the INTRO/ENDING button again to 

stop with an ending pattern.
Please Note:
