EXT. CLOCK is displayed when the Play button is pressed, if the Clock parameter on
the MISC page is set to Ext. It will go this status from both the STOPPED
and REC READY status. It ßashes, indicating it is waiting for an external
MIDI clock message to start recording or playing.
Current Song (CurSong)
Current Song ID# and 16 character name selected for recording, playback or editing. When a
Song is selected, Program Change, Volume, and Pan information is sent to all MIDI channels
assigned to tracks that have data on them, and the internal clock is set to the Tempo.
Tempo
Controls tempo for the selected song. You can make temporary changes, record real time tempo
changes, or set an initial tempo for the current Song.
Whatever the tempo is set to when you record your Þrst track will be the SongÕs initial tempo.
Temporary changes may be made during playback, but the tempo will reset to the initial tempo
when the sequencer is STOPPED.
To change a SongÕs initial tempo, press Record (the Song Status will change to REC READY),
set the tempo desired, then press Stop . The initial tempo can also be changed with the Tempo
parameter in the EditSong : COMMON page. The Song will always start playback at the initial
tempo, even though this tempo marker does not get recorded as a tempo event on any track.
If the sequencer is RECORDING, any tempo value changes will be recorded in real time. Unlike
the special case of setting the initial tempo, any tempo changes recorded in real time are
recorded as tempo events.
Fractional Tempos
You can use fractional tempos (120.5, etc.) in your sequence. However, the initial tempo can not
be fractional, and you cannot enter a fractional number in the tempo parameter on the MAIN or
COMMON pages. You must Þrst record a real time tempo event, then go to the EVENT editor
and change it to a fractional amount.
To do this, press Record , then Play . The sequencer starts recording. Use any data entry method
to choose a tempo. The value is unimportant since you will be changing it in the EVENT editor.
Next press
Stop and save the Song. Now when you go to the EVENT editor (see page 12-28),
you will see a tempo event. You can now edit the value to a fractional amount. To have the song
start immediately with the fractional tempo, edit its location to 1:1:000.
Record Track (RecTrk)
Determines which track is record enabled. Set the record enabled track to Multi to record more
than one channel simultaneously or to use a Setup in your Song.
When RecTrk is set to a single track ( 1 - 16 ), Record (R) is displayed for that track in the Track
Status Indicator Þeld (above the Track Channels). Conversely, with one exception, when any
TrackÕs Status Indicator is changed to Record (R), that Track is shown as the value for the
RecTrk parameter.
The exception is when RecTrk is already set to Multi, you can select the record enabled tracks
by toggling the Track Status Indicator to Record (R), and the RecTrk will remain set to Multi.
When Multi is initially selected, all of the empty tracks will be record enabled. Tracks
containing data will remain set to play (P), but you can manually set them to record (R).
