MIDI Sync Clock
Auto, Internal
You can synchronize the performance of a sequencer or other external MIDI device.
Auto: When no MIDI Clock from the external MIDI device is being received, the performance is synchronized to the tempo set in MASTER BPM; when the external MIDI device’s MIDI Clock is being received, the performance is synchronized to that.
Internal: The performance is synchronized to the tempo set in MASTER BPM.
*This was set to “Auto” when the unit was shipped from the factory.
*When you have an external MIDI device connected, the Master BPM is then synchronized to the external MIDI device’s tempo, thus disabling the Master BPM setting. If you want to be able to set the Master BPM, set to “Internal.”
*When synchronizing performances to the MIDI Clock signal from an external MIDI device, timing problems in the performance may occur due to errors in the MIDI Clock.
