To tap a tempo setting, press and hold the

key and tap the

key in a steady rhythm.
The average tempo of the taps calculates after four consecutive taps. By continuing tapping, the average
tempo keeps on updating.
Nudging the tempo is very handy when manually syncing Digitone to a turntable or an ex-
ternal sound source. Note that you do not need to be in the TEMPO menu to perform tempo
nudging.
