• The <SyncScreen> soft key :

This screen is described in the chapter entitled “Syncing to Tape and

Other Devices.”

• The <TempoChanges> soft key:

The function of this soft key is described in the following section.

Mid-Sequence Tempo Changes

This feature allows the tempo to change automatically at preset

locations within a sequence. To insert tempo changes into the active

sequence or to view existing tempo changes, press the TEMPO/

SYNC key, then press the <TempoChanges> soft key. The follow-

ing screen will appear:

====== Mid-sequence tempo changes ======

Tempo changes:ON

Location for inserted change:001.01.00

Change#: Bar#: %Change: =Tempo:

2 002.03.00 150.00 180.0 BPM

========================================

In the center of the screen is a group of fields, labeled Change#,

Bar#, %Change and =Tempo. In this case, the labels are located

directly above the actual data fields. These four fields work together

to allow you to view or edit any tempo changes that exist in the

sequence.

There can be many tempo changes in the sequence. These four fields

show one of these changes at a time. The Change# field shows the

number of the currently displayed tempo change within the list of

changes; the other fields show the contents of that tempo change.

For example, the above screen example shows that tempo change

number 2 will occur at bar 2, beat 3, and will change the tempo by

150% to 180 beats per minute.

The following is a description of each of these four fields:

• The Change# field:

This field displays the number of the tempo change cur-

rently displayed. There can be many tempo changes within

the sequence, but only one can be viewed at a time. By

changing this number, each of the existing tempo changes

can be viewed. The <Previous> and <Next> soft keys

can also be used to decrement or increment this field.

1 2 ... 64 65 66 67 68 69 70 71 72 73 74 ... 275 276
