The Metronome cannot be
turned on when free-tempo
song data is selected in the
Song mode.
The tempo setting of some
commercially available
songs is fixed. These songs
are called “free-tempo
software.” When playing
back free-tempo song data
on the PSR-340, the Tempo
display shows “---” and the
beat display does not flash.
Also, the measure number
in the display does not
match the actual measure
number of playback, and
only gives you an indication
of how much of the song
has played back.
