The metronome does not start at any given tempo. You set the tempo like this:
1) Hold the Metronome fingering combination.
2) Think of a tempo in you head.
3) Beat the tempo two times on the +/- controls (both contacts at the same time)
4) The metronome continues in that tempo.
5) Touch +/- controls again holding the Metronome fingering combination: the metronome turns
off.
The chanter can play three different scales:
1) The standard GHB/SP scale, tuned to harmonise with the drones: so called harmonic tuning.
2) A chromatic scale, also with harmonic tuning.
3) A chromatic scale with equally tempered tuning. This tuning is usually the best for playing
together with other instruments. N.B. With this tuning some notes may seem out of tune with
the drones.

The chanter uses one 1.5Volt AAA/LR03 alkaline battery, or one 1.2Volt AAA/HR03 NiMH
rechargeable battery. The chanter will run approx. 10 hours on a 1000mAh NiMH rechargeable
battery, or 20 hours in MIDI mode. A rechargeable battery is recommended as it will be cheaper in
the long run.
If the chanter does not start correctly, or runs only for a few minutes before shutting itself off, the
chanter needs a new battery.
Remove the end cap x from the chanter by firmly pulling it outwards. Move the battery holder to the
side to allow the battery to slide out slightly. Tap the battery end of the chanter against the palm of
your hand in order to get the battery out. Insert the new battery with the negative pole towards the
end cap. Make sure the battery holder makes electrical contact with the negative pole. Put the
end cap back on.
