Setting a tempo (“Tempo Map Set ?” menu)
The “
Setting a tempo
” menu enables you to specify a tempo at a given point in a song that already has a time
signature setting. For example, you can specify a tempo of 150 to the third beat of the 12th measure.
Time signature and tempo settings make a Tempo Map, which is used by the recorder to manage the song
using the BAR/BEAT/CLK Time Base, and enable the Metronome function. Tempo settings as well as time
signature settings are required when you wish to output MIDI clock and Song Position Pointer to an external
sequencer.
<Note>
The tempo set figure setup here is an approximate figure and not 100% accurate. Therefore, although the tempo
map be matched to a personal computer, they will gradually drift apart. In order to prevent this drift, the
personal computer side can be set to either MIDI Clock Sync or, the MIDI sync output signal temporarily set to
“MIDI Clock,” the figure reset to the accurate tempo and then return again to MTC sync.

key. Indication on the display changes as shown below,
and the current tempo appears. The initial setting is
“
001 bar 1 =120
”. This means that a tempo for the
first beat of the first measure is set to 120.
2. Rotate the Jog dial clockwise.
You can view the current tempo values in sequence.
Tempo value “
- - - bar - = - - -
” means that no tempo

” is followed by

”.

250 per quarter note.
The indication “

” means “no tempo,” which is used
to delete a tempo setting.
