DEFINE 2 - Function: TIME SIGNATURE
This function sets the time signature for the Sequence.
1. With the DEFINE module active, key in 2. The display shows the default 4/4 time
signature:
Time Sign 04/04
Use Sliders A&B
...unless the Sequence has already been recorded, in which case the lower line
will say “Seq Is Not Empty”. The time signature is recorded as part of the
Sequence, and cannot be changed once a Sequence has been recorded.
2. Slider A varies the numerator of the time signature (the numbers of beats in a
measure) from 01 to 16. An additional * option is available at the bottom of Slider
A’s travel. This mode neither specifies a fixed time signature nor accents the
metronome on a specific beat, and is generally used in conjunction with * mode
in SEQUENCE DEFINE 3 (“Sequence Length”), which defines the Sequence
length in real-time. * mode is also useful if you are composing a piece of music
with multiple time signature changes.
Whatever time signature mode you choose, be sure to plug the MET OUT jack
into an amplifier so that you can monitor the metronome as you set the measure
length.
Slider B provides three beat values for the denominator of the time signature: 04
(quarter note), 08 (eighth note), and 16 (sixteenth note).
3. When the display shows the desired time signature, press ENTER.
