USING THE AUTO-
RHYTHMS
Your Concertmate 410 has 12 auto-
rhythms that provide a steady beat for
your music. The name and number of
each auto-rhythm is listed on the Con-
certmate 410’s top panel.
Follow these steps to select and play
an auto-rhythm.
1. The Concertmate 410 automati-
cally selects the rhythm DISCO
(A1) each time you turn it on. To
select another rhythm, press
RHYTHM .
2. Choose an auto-rhythm from the
RHYTHM list, then repeatedly
press the corresponding button (
A
or B ) until you hear the corre-
sponding number. For example, to
select 16 BEAT (A3), repeatedly
press
A until you hear “ Three.”
3. Press START/STOP to start the
selected auto-rhythm. The
TEMPO indicator flashes in time
with the beat, and the keyboard
plays the selected rhythm.
4. To slow down the auto-rhythm,
repeatedly press TEMPO t. To
speed it up, repeatedly press
TEMPO s.
Notes:
• You can adjust TEMPO s and t
to play an auto-rhythm from 40
to 218 beats per minute.
• To reset the tempo to its default
(original) speed (128 beats per
minute), press both
TEMPO s
and t at the same time. The
rhythm plays at the original
speed.
