should be set to the desired frame rate.

• The Active Tempo field (BPM:

120.0120.0

120.0 (SEQ) in the above ex-

ample):

This is the active playing tempo. If the sequence contains tempo

changes, this shows the active tempo at the current sequence

position displayed in the Now field.

• The Tempo Source field (BPM:120.0

(SEQ)(SEQ)

(SEQ) in the above

example):

This is a choice field with two options:

1. SEQ (sequence): Within each sequence is a unique tempo

setting. If this option is selected, the sequence’s unique

tempo is used in the Active Tempo field. In this case,

whenever the active sequence number is changed, the

newly selected sequence’s tempo immediately appears in

the Active Tempo field. When playing sequences, this is

useful if you want each newly selected sequence to play

at its own preset tempo. The sequence’s tempo is saved to

disk when a sequence is saved.

2. MAS (master): The master tempo is a single tempo setting

that applies to all sequences and songs. When playing

sequences this is useful if you always want each newly

selected sequence to play at the same tempo. This tempo

setting is not saved in the sequence file.

• The Time Signature field (Sig:

4/4/

4 in the above example):

This field shows the time signature of the current bar (displayed in

the Now field) of the active sequence. It is for display only and

cannot be changed. For information on how to change the time

signature of a bar or to insert time signature changes, see the

“Editing Sequences” chapter of this manual.

• The Bars field:

This shows the total number of bars in the active sequence. It is for

display only and cannot be changed.

• The Loop field:

This is a choice field with two options:

1. OFF:

If this option is selected, the sequence stops playing when

it reaches its end. However, if in Record mode, recording

continues past the end, adding one measure (at the time

signature of the last bar) onto the end of the sequence as

each new bar is entered, until the sequence is stopped.

2. TO BAR 1:

If this option is selected, when the sequence plays to the

end, it immediately loops back to the bar number
