Setting the Metronome function (“Click ?” menu)
“Setting the Metronome function” menu allows you to determine whether or not the FD-8 outputs a metronome
sound from Real track 8 during playback or recording. Turning the Metronome function on enables you to
record your performance while playing the instrument accompanying the metronome sound.
Note: Since Real track 8 outputs the metronome sound when this function is turned on, you cannot play the audio recorded on this track.
Also, do not record any data on track 8.
The FD-8 can output the metronome sound even from an unrecorded area (outside of the range from ABS 0 to REC END) on track 8.
• Initial setting: [oFF]
• Option: [oFF], or [on]
* You can turn the function on and off for each Program individually.
* The settings can be saved and loaded as part of the song data.
* The settings are maintained after you turn off the power to the unit.
Setting the Metronome function
1. While the FD-8 is stopped, press the SETUP key to
enter SETUP mode.
2. Turn the JOG dial to select [Click ?] ([?] flashes.),
then press the EXECUTE/YES key.
The current setting ([oFF] or [on]) appears on the display.
Pressing the EXECUTE/YES key lights up the flashing [?]
character steadily; the current setting flashes. The initial
