Using the Metronome (Metronome Mode)
The RT-223 incorporates a metronome function that is ideal to provide a guide rhythm for practice. The
metronome also lets you use mixed beat patterns, such as 2 + 3 or 3 + 4 beat combinations.
■
Beat types
The metronome of the RT-223 supports beats
u s i n g q u a r t e r n o t e s o r e i g h t h n o t e s a s
d e n o m i n a t o r ( u n i t n o t e ) . T h e f o l l o w i n g
numerators (number of beats) can be selected.
W i t h i n t h e b e a t s u s i n g t h e q u a r t e r n o t e
denominator, there are five subtypes (C1, C2, C3,
C4, C5) that differ in dynamics and count detail.
For example, if a 4/4 beat is selected, the C1 - C5
variations are as follows.
NOTE
•
Depending on the beat type, some dynamics
combinations are not available.
•
For beats using the eighth note denominator
(6/8, 7/8, 12/8), the dynamics cannot be
changed.
■
Mixed beat patterns
When using the metronome at a 5/4 beat, you can
select 2 + 3 or 3 + 2 as a numerator.
In the same way, when using the metronome at a
7/4 beat, you can select 3 + 4, or 4 +3, resulting in
different ways of counting the measure.
