The Clavinova features a convenient metronome that is ideal for practicing. The
procedure for setting the metronome tempo can also be used to set the playback
tempo for the Auto Accompaniment (page 49) and Song (page 93) modes.
You can start the metronome and set the tempo from any display, including
the main display.

dial or [–] and [+] buttons to set the tempo.
Using the Metronome
During Style or Song Playback…
If a style or song is started while the
metronome is playing, the metro-
nome will continue to sound along
with the style or song.
The metronome uses the time signa-
ture of the style or song instead of
the BEAT setting during style or
song playback.
The metronome stops when the
style or song stops.
