The Metronome SETUP screen is unique in that two parameters are accessible on one screen. The front panel UP

Pressing the "1" button (NO) at this time will cause no changes in stored memory and revert back to the SETUP menu screen.
Pressing the "3" button (RUN) at this time will cause no changes in stored memory and revert back to the normal RUN

return the screen to the SETUP menu. The power-up condition of the Model 590 will now reflect these latest parameter
settings until new values are once again stored under SETUP.

octave (the most prevalent case but, by no means, the only case), there are an infinite number of ways to set the audio
frequencies of these notes relative to one another. Through the centuries, many have wrestled with the challenge of creating
the most pleasing, yet universally flexible, temperament of these 12 intervals. It turns out that it is mathematically impossible
