Adding a Count-in
You can add a count-in of one or two measures when playing
the song.
When you add a count-in, it appears on the left-hand
display. Pressing [START] starts the count sound (the count-
in), and after the count-in the song starts to play.
* The count-in is sounded when you begin play or recording
from the top of the song (the first measure). The count-in is not
sounded when you begin play or recording from somewhere
later in the song, even if you’ve set it so a count-in is to be
played.
* The count-in you set here also remains in effect during
realtime recording for Forms or chords (p. 67, 70), or when
recording on the Audio Track (p. 112).
