3.Use the [VALUE +/-] keys to select the "Midi" or "rMt" setting.

MIDI

When wishing to control the tempo, transport operations, and locate operations all from the external device, select "Midi". In this case, the internal tempo settings of the MRT-3 have no effect. Set the tempo at the external device.

When wishing to control only transport operations from the external device, select "rMt". In this case, the internal tempo settings of the MRT-3 are active. (Because the tempo of the MRT-3 and the tempo of the external device are not synchronized, position matching within a song for playback is not possible.)

4.Press the [FUNCTION] key once more.

The unit returns to the previous mode.

5.Select a song or pattern for synchronized playback.

6.Start playback at the MIDI sequencer/recorder.

•When "Midi" is selected as clock source

The MRT-3 starts playback from the start of the sequence/song in sync with the MIDI clock tempo. When the MIDI sequencer/recorder is stopped, the MRT-3 also stops. When the MIDI sequencer/recorder is moved to a position within the song for playback, the MRT-3 also starts playback from that position.

•When "rMt" is selected as clock source

The MRT-3 starts playback from the start of the sequence/song, using its internal tempo setting. When the MIDI sequencer/recorder is stopped, the MRT-3 also stops.

If the MIDI sequencer/recorder is moved to a position within the song for playback, the MRT-3 cannot start playback from that position.
