USING THE EFFECT FUNCTIONS
With the
Features of Various Effectors
AUTO BPM COUNTER
Automatically measures music BPM (beats per minute; tempo) and displays it digitally.
It not only counts the beat of bass sounds but also calculates (using a computer) the music’s original BPM, which DJs require, and displays it digitally.
Thus, BPM can now be checked not only aurally, as was conventional, but also visually, enabling quicker, simpler mixing of music with different tempos.
Use of the TAP switch to input the beat manually makes it possible to set BPM for music for which it is difficult to measure (a capella, improvisation, etc.).
Beat Effector (Effects linked to BPM)
Links various effects to the BPM calculated with the aforementioned AUTO BPM COUNTER to enable unprecedented sound production.
