Using the Dial

The screen’s MEASURE indication must be blinking. If it is not blinking, press

the [MEASURE] button once—so that it begins blinking.

Turn the dial to the right to advance the song position, or to the left to move back

in the song.

Using Markers

If you have stored locations into markers, you can use these markers to jump from

location to location. But note that markers can be used only while the sequencer is in

PLAY or PLAY STANDBY mode.

Additional Explanation

●

Remember that when you adjust the location using any of the methods described

above, the environment at the adjusted location may not match the true envi-

ronment that would exist if you had played the song through from the begin-

ning.

●

If you use the sequencer buttons or the dial to adjust the location while the se-

quencer is in PLAY mode, the sequencer will reproduce all knob and mute events

already recorded in the area over which you pass (you may see the readings chang-

ing on the meters), but will not execute scene changes.

For example, if you move from location 10:1 to 20:1, the sequencer will repro-

duce any knob and pad mute events that you previously recorded within these

measures, but it will not reproduce any scene changes that you recorded within

these measures.

●

If you adjust the location while the sequencer is in PLAY STANDBY or REC

STANDBY or by using markers, the sequencer will not reproduce any of the se-

quence events recorded in the area that you pass over. The sequencer’s knob set-

tings, mute settings, and effect setup will be exactly the same at the end of the

move as they were at the beginning.

●

If you move back to the start position, the sequencer will automatically recall the

top scene (provided that you have stored a top scene).

How to Adjust the BPM

The BPM (beats-per-minute) setting controls the tempo of the song during recording

or performance. The current setting is shown in the BPM area at the right of the

screen. You can adjust the value in either of two ways:

1 ... 163 164 165 ... 354
