15. TEMPO MODE
In Tempo Mode you can set the tempo for the song or pattern playback or recording.
You can switch into Tempo Mode and change the playback tempo as the pattern or
song is playing.
Each Preset pattern and song has an "initial tempo" assigned to it. Whenever you select
a Preset pattern and press [PLAY], the initial tempo will be activated.
ENTERING TEMPO MODE - Hold [MODE] and press [TEMPO] to enter Tempo
Mode. The word "TEMPO" will appear in the lower left area of the LCD, along
with the current tempo value.
CHANGING THE TEMPO - Press [-1] and [+1] to set the tempo between 40
and 250 beats per minute.
Any changes you make to the initial tempo of a Preset pattern or song will be temporary, but the tempo
change made to a User pattern or song will be retained.
When the sync clock is set to "MIDI", dashes ("– – –") will display in the LCD and you will not be able to
change the tempo. (For information about the sync clock, see page 68.)
