A
METER
In this area you can specify the time signature.
The area enclosed by the dotted frame is the
currently selected time signature data. In the
METER area you can make the following set-
tings for the STEP/MEASURE/METER items.
●
STEP
Move the cursor to this area and rotate the
[DATA/JOG] dial to select the number (step
number) of the time signature data. The step
number is assigned consecutively, starting at the
time signature data of the lowest-numbered
measure.
●
MEASURE
Move the cursor to this area and rotate the
[DATA/JOG] dial to modify the measure number
of the time signature. If you move the time sig-
nature beyond the previous or next time signa-
ture data, their step numbers will be exchanged
automatically.
●
METER
Move the cursor to this area and rotate the
[DATA/JOG] dial to specify the time signature
(2/1–8/8) for that measure. The numerator and
denominator of the time signature can be set
independently.
Tip!
When the AW4416 is in the default state,
time signature data of 4/4 is already input at
measure 1.
• It is not possible to move the time signature
data of measure 1.
• It is not possible to place two time signatures
at the same measure. If you move the cursor
to the MEASURE area and specify the same
measure number as an existing time signa-
ture, the previous time signature data will be
deleted.
B
TEMPO
In this area you can specify tempo data. The
area enclosed by the dotted line is the currently
selected tempo data. In the TEMPO area you
can make the following settings for the STEP/
MEASURE/BEAT/TEMPO items.
●
STEP
Move the cursor to this area and rotate the
[DATA/JOG] dial to select the number (step
number) of the tempo data. The step number is
assigned consecutively, starting at the tempo
data of the lowest-numbered measure.
●
MEASURE/BEAT
Move the cursor to this area and rotate the
[DATA/JOG] dial to modify the location (mea-
sure/beat) of the tempo data. If you move the
tempo data beyond the previous or next tempo
data, their step numbers will be exchanged
automatically.
