Tempo Sync

Range Limits
Some Tempo Sync parameters cannot access the entire note range in
. Because the original (non-tempo sync) range of the time-based
parameters within each plug-in is limited, if the host tempo is too fast or too slow, the
tempo sync note value may not be able to be achieved within the constraints of the
original parameter.
Out of range
When a parameter note value is out of range of the current tempo note value, the note
value is displayed in parentheses. In this case, the parameter’s minimum (slow tempo) or
maximum (fast tempo) value is used instead of the displayed value.

Entering Values
In addition to adjusting the parameter control, the following methods can be used for
entering Tempo Sync values.
Arrow Keys
After clicking the parameter to select it, the computer’s arrow keys can be used to
increment/decrement through available note values.
Text Entry
Any notation values can be entered (fraction or decimal), and the values are
automatically converted to the nearest appropriate setting.
Example: If 3/4 or 6/8 is entered using text entry, 1/2D is displayed because a dotted
half note equals three quarter notes, which is the duration of one measure in a time
signature of 3/4 or 6/8. If 12/8 is entered with text entry, 1/1D is displayed because a
dotted whole note equals six quarter notes, which is the duration of one measure in a
time signature of 12/8 (or two measures in a time signature of 3/4 or 6/8).
This means you can create a tempo sync duration of one measure for any time signature
by simply typing in the time signature (assuming there is a match in the beat table).
Similarly, if 1/12 is entered with text entry, 1/8T is displayed because an eighth note
triplet is equivalent to one-twelfth of a measure (if in 4/4 time).
