sync
to
external
MIDI
clock.
You
can
also
manually
choose
a
tempo
by
selecting
a
value
from
20
to
400
for
BPM.
Use
the
Alpha
Wheel
or
‐
/+
buttons
to
choose
between
the
options
or
set
a
tempo.
You
can
also
use
the
alphanumeric
pad
followed
by
pressing
the
Enter
button
to
enter
a
tempo.
SyncZone
The
SyncZone
parameter
determines
which
zone
a
riff
will
sync
to.
You
can
choose
to
sync
to
a
riff
or
arpeggio
in
a
specific
zone
by
setting
SyncZone
to
Riff
1–16
or
Arp1
‐
16
,
and
the
current
riff
will
always
sync
to
the
riff
or
arpeggio
in
the
set
zone.
For
example,
if
you
have
a
drum
riff
in
zone
1
and
a
bass
riff
in
zone
2,
you
may
always
want
the
bass
riff
in
zone
2
to
sync
to
the
drum
riff
in
zone
1.
In
this
case
you
would
set
the
bass
riff
SyncZone
to
Riff
1
.
You
may
want
to
have
a
little
more
freedom
and
not
be
tied
to
the
drum
riff
as
the
main
“timekeeper.”
Maybe
you
want
to
start
with
the
bass
riff
and
have
the
drum
riff
start
later.
In
this
case
you
would
set
SyncZone
to
FirstRiff.Av.
With
this
setting,
the
riff
will
look
for
the
first
available
riff
to
sync
to.
So
if
both
the
drum
riff
and
the
bass
riff
have
this
parameter
set
to
FirstRiff.Av.
,
the
riff
that
is
started
first
will
be
the
master.
If
the
bass
riff
starts
first,
the
drum
riff
will
see
that
as
the
first
available
riff
to
sync
to
and
will
do
so.
If
the
drum
riff
is
started
first,
the
bass
riff
will
see
that
as
the
first
available
riff
to
sync
to
and
will
do
so.
This
can
be
very
handy
if
you
have
multiple
riffs
and
want
to
do
some
live
remixing;
you
could
have
the
drums
drop
out,
and—as
long
is
there
is
a
riff
playing—they
will
sync
back
up
when
triggered
again.
You
can
also
choose
FirstArp.Av.
,
which
behaves
the
same
way
as
FirstRiff.Av.
,
but
makes
your
riff
look
for
the
first
available
arpeggiator
to
sync
to.
A
setting
of
Main
Seq.
will
sync
the
riff
to
the
song
currently
loaded
in
Song
mode.
You
can
select
a
song
in
Song
mode,
then
play
it
from
setup
mode
with
the
front
panel
Play/Pause
button.
(Doing
this
temporarily
replaces
the
programs
in
your
setup’s
zones
with
the
program
used
for
each
channel
in
the
song,
so
it’s
best
to
make
a
setup
that
uses
the
same
programs
as
your
song
on
the
same
MIDI
channels.
If
you
plan
on
syncing
riffs
with
a
song,
it
may
be
easier
to
start
by
creating
a
setup,
then
recording
the
setup
into
a
song.
See
Recording
A
Setup
To
Song
Mode
on page 7
‐

for
details.)
A
setting
of
First
Avail.
will
sync
the
riff
to
the
first
available
riff,
arpeggiator,
or
song
from
Song
mode.
Note:
If
you
have
multiple
riffs
or
arpeggiators
already
playing
when
using
FirstRiff.Av.
,
FirstArp.Av.
,
or
First
Avail.
for
the
current
riff,
the
current
riff
will
sync
to
the
riff
or
arpeggiator
of
the
lowest
numbered
zone
that
has
a
riff
or
arpeggiator
playing.
SyncType
The
SyncType
parameter
allows
you
to
choose
how
your
riff
will
sync
to
other
riffs,
arpeggiators,
and
Songs
(depending
on
your
settings
made
for
the
SyncZone
parameter.)
With
SyncType
set
to
None
,
your
riff
will
start
playing
as
soon
as
it
is
triggered.
It
will
not
sync
to
anything.
With
SyncType
set
to
DownBeat
,
if
there
is
already
something
playing
to
sync
to,
the
current
riff
will
wait
for
the
downbeat
of
the
next
measure
before
starting;
so,
you
can
trigger
the
riff
to
start
ahead
of
time,
and
have
it
start
in
sync
at
the
downbeat
of
the
next
measure.
If
Syncing
to
an
arpeggiator,
see
Num
Beats
on page 7
‐
53
for
details
on
changing
when
an
arpeggiator’s
downbeat
will
occur.
With
SyncType
set
to
AnyBeat
,
if
there
is
already
a
something
playing
to
sync
to,
the
riff
will
wait
only
until
the
next
beat.
Depending
on
when
you
trigger
the
riff,
it
will
sync
up,
but
it
may
be
on
an
upbeat
or
a
downbeat.
With
SyncType
set
to
DownBeatWait
,
the
riff
will
wait
for
the
downbeat
of
the
next
measure
to
start.
The
difference
from
DownBeat
is
that
if
there
is
nothing
playing
to
sync
to,
the
riff
will
not
start.
This
can
be
useful
if
you
want
to
start
multiple
riffs
synced
to
one
riff.
You
could
have
a
bass
riff
set
to
DownBeatWait
,
for
instance,
and
trigger
the
riff
while
no
other
riffs
are
running.
As
soon
as
you
start
another
riff,
the
bass
riff
will
start
playing
as
well
(provided
that
it
is
set
to
sync
to
another
riff
or
to
the
first
available
riff.)
If
another
riff
is
already
running,
DownBeatWait
behaves
just
like
DownBeat
.
