Set the tempo like this:
1) Hold the Metronome fingering combination.
2) Beat the tempo once on the +/-controls (both contacts at the same time).
3) (OPTIONAL) Add sub-beats by touching the -control.
4) Beat the tempo again on the +/-controls to set the main beat.
5) The metronome continues in that tempo.
6) Touch + or - control again holding the Metronome fingering combination to adjust tempo.
To start the metronome in a given tempo, start like this:
1) Hold the Metronome fingering combination.
2) Touch +/-controls once (both contacts at the same time.)
3) The metronome starts at a 100 bpm tempo.
4) Touch + or - control again holding the Metronome fingering combination: the metronome
increases or decreases tempo in 4 bpm steps.
The chanter can record more than 2500 notes. You can play along with the recorded notes to
practice phrases, seconds, etc. When recording, the first note and the last note preceding the Sound
off note are not stored for simplifying the creation of loops. The recorded track is played back on the
right channel, and you play along on the left channel. The playback speed can be set between ¼ and
2 times the recorded speed. The recording is erased when recording mode is exited, or when the
earphones are disconnected.
Typical recording sequence:
1) Start drones and chanter.
2) Play the Recording fingering combination.
3) Put your lower hand thumb on both the +control and -control. A high-pitched beep indicates
recording mode.
4) Record as long as you like, or until the memory is full (indicated by a low-pitched beep).
5) Stop playing.
6) Start playback by turning drones and chanter on.
7) Play along.
8) Exit recording mode by 2) and 3) above. A low-pitched beep indicates normal mode.
The chanter can play four different fingerings:
1) Galician closed fingering.
2) Galician open fingering.
3) Asturian fingering.
4) Great Highland fingering.
(See separate fingering document.)
The chanter uses one 1.5Volt AAA/LR03 alkaline battery, or one 1.2Volt AAA/HR03 NiMH
rechargeable battery. The chanter will run +30 hours on a 1000mAh NiMH rechargeable battery. A
rechargeable battery is recommended.
When the red LED at the upper end of the chanter
is blinking slowly, the battery soon needs
replacing. When the red LED is on constantly, the battery is near flat.
REMOVE BATTERY IF CHANTER IS BEING STORED FOR A LONGER PERIOD.
