8. Move the cursor to the field and select .

The DPS12’s time counter and the time fields will use bar/beat/clock notation.

9. Move the cursor to the field, then turn the [JOG] dial to recall the BEAT MAP Control Panel.

10. Move the cursor to the field, and enter the first time signature of the song.

If the time signature changes during the song, press the [F6] key to insert new time signature informa-

tion, and adjust the position and the time signature value. See page 92.

11. Move the cursor to the field, and turn the [JOG] dial to recall the TEMPO MAP Control Panel.

If the DPS12 supplies MIDI Clock to the MIDI sequencer, the tempo setting of the MIDI sequencer will be

ignored. Therefore, you need to set the tempo in the TEMPO MAP Control Panel.

12. Move the cursor to the field, and enter the first tempo of the song.

If a tempo changes during the song, press the [F6] key to insert new tempo information, and adjust the

position and value of the tempo. (See page 93.)

NOTE :

You need to create a Beat Map first before you create a Tempo Map.

13. Set the MIDI sequencer so that it will synchronize to the external MIDI Clock.

14. Start recording or playing back on the DPS12.

When you perform a locate operation on the DPS12, it transmits Song Position Pointer (the position informa-

tion in bar/beat/clock notation calculated based on the DPS12’s absolute time, tempo information, and time

signature information), and the MIDI sequencer will synchronize. When you start recording or playing back on

the DPS12, it will transmit MIDI Clock, and the MIDI sequencer will synchronize.
