metronome

[Calvi19]

Hi, i´m wondering if there is a way to play a piano with a metronome. Its for practicing. thanks.

there is no easy way that i know of (unfortunately)

i think you'd have to make a combi with a piano sound and a percussion sound
then get the arp to trigger the sound you want

or just use something on your pc (what i do)
or buy a dedicated metronome/drum machine (what i'm thinking of doing)

it annoys me when a higher end keyboard/workstation lacks in area's an entry level casio can do.
casio's are designed to be user friendly (so any dumb person can easily use it and find enjoyment) and be relatively cheap to produce
but sound kinda lame and aren't editable at all

it would be great if korgs had a proper rhythm section
where you could dial in a preset or program your own beat
and have its own play/pause button.
or better yet.. build an electribe into a workstation

Hey was gonna say the same thing...
The best for these mid-level synths would be to have a separate rythm and beat section, having a drum machine like structure, and leave the arpeggiator to the damn bass and background chords...

Lol you can never play a "full" song with an X-50 coz' you would need a beat, bass and chord in the background.. and those are 3 things, compared to the 2 maximum simultaneous arpeggiators you can use

You should look at all the Korg Arranger keyboards which support styles with rhythm and accompaniment.

The X-50/Micro-X are more geared for live performance such as with a band, where a sequencer/rhythm aren't as useful as arpeggiators. Korgs arrangers use the same engines as the Triton and M3.
