Tempo
Set the global tempo by tapping the Tempo key.
The global tempo can be used as a common tempo
guide in all Presets. All tempo related parameters like
Delay times and LFO speeds can be controlled by the
global Tempo, and each parameter can have its
subdivision of the global tempo.
Tapping a tempo into a Delay
All Delay algorithms and algorithms containing LFO speed
parameters have links to the Global Tempo. This means that a
tapped tempo can be used in any Preset that contains any of
these algorithms. To make the tempo fit your purpose, we added
a subdivision parameter to all these algorithms. All you have to
do is set up which subdivision you would like the tempo to
divide into.
Example: You want a Delay to perform 1/8 triplets. Enter the
Edit parameter page of the Delay and set the Tempo parameter to
1/8T. Now tap the BPM on the Tempo key, and the Delay will
automatically recalculate into 1/8 triplets in the current tempo.
The same goes for all the algorithms containing LFO speeds.
The algorithms able to use the global tempo are:
Delay Chorus/Flanger
Phaser LFO 1
Panner LFO 2
Tremolo Freeform
The Tempo display
Tapping the Tempo key will cause the Tempo display to pop up.
The Tempo display can stick on until you press the Tempo key
again, or it can disappear automatically. Choose whether the
Tempo should be “Sticky” or not in the Utility page.
The Tempo display, will read out the tapped BPM (Beats per
minute) and the tapped time in milliseconds. If you prefer to dial
the BPM simply place the cursor on BPM parameter, and dial the
Value wheel to change the Tempo. The FireworX is also capable
of following an incoming MIDI clock, place the cursor on the
MIDI clock parameter and select enabled.
Maximum tempo - 300 BPM.
Minimum tempo - 20 BPM.
At Preset change use default tempo
Controls whether a Preset should use the global tempo
instantaneously at Preset change or if the Preset should use the
value stored in the Preset until the next tapped tempo.
Example: You are using a delay Preset that is set to 1/4 notes,
and the global tempo is 120 BPM, that means that the actual
delay time of your Preset is 500ms. Now you make a Preset
change, and the new Preset is also set to 1/4 notes, but the delay
time parameter was stored at 400ms. Do you want the new Preset
to stay at the 400ms and not change until you tap the tempo
again, or do you want it to change to the current global tempo
(500ms)?
Selecting “Global” will make the Preset use the Global tempo,
while selecting ”Preset” will make the Preset to use the setting
stored in the Preset.
Tempo controlled via pedal/MIDI
The Tempo can be tapped via the External input jack on the back
panel of the FireworX or via a MIDI. That is setup in the I/O
Setup, CTRL (Control) display.
