Creating a tempo map
The “tempo map” contains data to change the tempo or
time signature at the beginning of the song or at any
measure or beat within the song. The measure/beat dis-
play counter, the Quick Loop Sampler, the internal met-
ronome, and the MIDI clock data generated within the
AW16G are all based on this tempo map.
The AW16G’s tempo map can also record data to switch
scenes (
→
p. 73) or Pad sample banks (
→
p. 107). You
can use this to switch scenes as the song progresses, or to
switch the sounds that are played by the Quick Loop
Sampler.
Tip! Tip!
• The Start point of the song corresponds to the starting
location of the tempo map.
• The data (“tempo map events”) recorded in the tempo
map will continue to apply until the location at which
the next event of the same type has been input.
Note Note
If you modify the tempo map after recording on an audio
track, the measure/beat counter display values will be
affected. For this reason if you want to use MIDI clock to
synchronize with an external MIDI device, or if you want
to control the song in measure units, you should create
the tempo map before you record. If you modify the
tempo map after a track has already been recorded, a
popup window will ask you for confirmation.

Editing a tempo map event
When you create a new song, the following tempo map
event will be input at the beginning of the tempo map
(the first beat of the first measure).
• Time signature: 4/4
• Tempo: 120.0
• Pad sample bank: Pad 1=A, Pad 2=A,
Pad 3=A, Pad 4=A
• Scene number: not assigned
Here’s how to edit the values of this tempo map event.
