: I'm pretty sure that the dtxII doesn't talk, but it will click if

:) Actually, I know that in the 'old' Yamaha WDM chipsets in patch 99
certain note numbers included a male voice saying 'one', 'two', 'three' and
'four'.
You could check if the new WDM chipset (which is built-into the dtxII) has
these 'notes' and assign them to the metronome settings in the util menu.
