measures and beats.

This parameter enables you to select absolute time or relative time as the time counter value. Use the [CUR-

SOR]

key to move the cursor to this field, then use the [JOG] dial to set the parameter. There are two options.

• .............Absolute time referenced to the DPS12’s internal zero point (00:00:00:00.0).

• ..............Relative time referenced to any zero point you set (00:00:00:00.0).

TIP :

Use the TIME OFFSET Control Panel to specify a zero point for relative time. (See page 89.)
