SUBDIVISION (F2)

This page lets you adjust settings for the subdivision metronome. This is similar to the regular metronome but while the regular metronome sounds every beat, the subdivision metronome sounds during smaller intervals of each measure.

1.Press UTILITY to enter the main Utility Menu.

2.Press MTRO (F1) to access the metronome settings.

3.Press SUBD (F2) to access the subdivision metronome settings.

4.Use CURSOR UP / DOWN to move through the menu items and VALUE UP / DOWN or the VALUE DIAL to adjust the settings:

SubDvsn: The length of each subdivision. The range includes 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, and 1/16 notes –

both regular and triplet. (Example: If the regular metronome is set to a 4/4 time signature and "SubDvsn" is set to "1/8," you will hear the regular metronome on every 1/4 note as well as the subdivision metronome on every 1/8 note.)

SubDLvl: The volume level of the subdivision metronome sound (00-99). We recommend keeping this volume relatively low so it is not confused with the regular metronome sound.

SubDSnd: The sound of the subdivision metronome.

TAP TEMPO (F3)

This page lets you adjust settings for the TAP TEMPO button and the tempo LED.

1.Press UTILITY to enter the main Utility Menu.

2.Press MTRO (F1) to access the metronome settings.

3.Press TAP (F3) to access the Tap Tempo settings.

4.Use CURSOR UP / DOWN to move through the menu items

and VALUE UP / DOWN or the VALUE DIAL to adjust the settings:

Tempo LED: This setting lets you control when the tempo LED will be seen. When set to "ON," the tempo LED will flash all the time. When set to "PAT ONLY," the tempo LED will only flash when a Sequence is playing. When set to "OFF," the tempo LED will never be seen.

Tap Tempo: Enables or disables the TAP TEMPO button. Disabling it may be useful if you do not want to make any unintentional changes to a Sequence's tempo.

METRONOME ROUTING (F4)

This page lets you select the module's outputs through which the metronome sounds will be sent. This can be useful for maintaining two separate mixes. (For instance, you may want to have a monitor mix with the metronome sent to you through the AUX OUT, but you want to have a separate mix without the metronome for the house PA system.)

1.Press UTILITY to enter the main Utility Menu.

2.Press MTRO (F1) to access the metronome settings.

3.Press OUT (F4) to access the metronome output settings.

4.Use VALUE UP / DOWN or the VALUE DIAL to adjust the settings:

OutAssign: This setting lets you assign the output through which the metronome sound will be sent. When set to "MAIN," the metronome will be sent out both channels of the MAIN OUT. When set to "AUX," the metronome will be sent out both channels of the AUX OUT. You can also select "AUX L" or "AUX R," which lets you send it out only one of the AUX OUT channels.

Note: If the "Output" setting on the main Utility Menu is set to "MAIN>AUX," this means the signal sent out the MAIN OUT will also be sent out the AUX OUT. In this case, the "OutAssign" settings for the AUX OUT will display "(N/A)" next to it, indicating the metronome will not be heard over this channel. (To make the AUX OUT available for the metronome sound, change the "Output" setting on the main Utility Menu to "MAIN&AUX."
