The “General” section:

In this field enter the number of bars for the initialized sequence.
• The

In this field enter the time signature for the initialized sequence. It
is actually two fields, one for the upper and one for the lower parts
of the time signature.

In this field enter the tempo to which you want the sequence to be
initialized. To view the tempo in frames per beat, move the cursor to
the word BPM and use the data entry control to change it to FPB,
