7. Pad motion
The KP2 lets you record your touch pad op-
erations, and move the the Pad Motion/
Mute lever to the PAD MOTION position to
play back these operations.
Recording
Recording will begin when you hold the the
Pad Motion/Mute lever in the PAD MO-
TION position and touch the touch pad.
Even when you take your finger away from
the touch pad, this state will continue to be
recorded as part of your operation. This
means that you can also record operations
that include tapping on the touch pad. Re-
cording will end when you move thethe
Pad Motion/Mute lever back to its original
position. Recording will also end when you
reach the maximum recording time (ap-
proximately 3.2 seconds).
Playback
If you have recorded a pad motion, move
the the Pad Motion/Mute lever to the PAD
MOTION position, and the recorded mo-
tion will play back. As long as you leave the
the Pad Motion/Mute lever in the PAD
MOTION position, the same motion will be
played back repeatedly as long as you do
not touch the touch pad.
If you touch the touch pad during playback,
recording will begin. Recording will be reset if
you change programs.
The Hold key on/off state is not recorded as
part of the pad motion. Also, if you turn on the
Hold key and play back a pad motion, the motion
will be held at the point where you stopped play-
back.
8. Specifying the BPM
If you specify the BPM, you will be able to
apply effects in synchronization to the BPM
when an effect program from the “BPM FX/
PTN” group is selected. For details on the
effect parameter to which this effect will be
applied, refer to the effect program list
(

separate sheet).
What is BPM?
BPM (Beats Per Minute) is the tempo of the
song expressed as the number of beats (quarter
notes) that occur in one minute. A higher BPM
value means a faster tempo.
To set the BPM
If you know the BPM, press the Tap/BPM
key and use the Program/BPM knob to set
the value. The normal display will reappear
if ten seconds pass without any operation
being performed.
Tap Tempo function
If you do not know the BPM, press the Tap/
BPM key twice or more in rhythm with the
beat of the song. The beat will be detected,
and the BPM will appear in the Program/
BPM display.
Auto BPM function
If you press and hold down the Tap/BPM
key for an extended time, three dots will ap-
pear in the Program/BPM display, and the
beat of the audio input will be detected au-
tomatically. (Auto BPM mode)
While the Program/BPM display is blink-
ing, the BPM is being detected.
Press the Tap/BPM key once again to end
automatic detection.
You can set the BPM in a range of 80–160.
MIDI Sync function
The BPM of the KP2 can be specified by
MIDI Timing Clock messages from an exter-
nal MIDI device. Connect the [MIDI IN]
connector of the KP2 to the [MIDI OUT]
connector of the external MIDI device (such
as a sequencer) that is transmitting the tim-
ing clock messages.
This function does not synchronize se-
quence data with the KP2's rhythm pattern pro-
grams. If you want to synchronize to sequence
data, you will either have to insert a Touch Pad
On message into the beginning of each measure
of your sequence data, or touch the touch pad at
the beginning of each KP2 phrase to start the
pattern.
If you want the KP2 to receive Timing
Clock and Touch Pad On messages, go to MIDI
