About the Tempo and Time Signature
Setting the Tempo When you wish to record to an empty phrase track, you can
set the tempo before recording.
You can also change the playback tempo when playing back
saved phrase tracks.
* If you save a phrase after changing the playback tempo, the
phrase is then saved with the modified tempo. If you do not
save it, the tempo change will be lost.

Press the TAP TEMPO button several times
at the desired tempo.
The tempo will be set according to the intervals at which
you press the button.
* The tempo can be changed only within a limited ratio.
* You cannot set the tempo for phrases that are looped over an
interval shorter than the minimum recording time (approxi-
mately 1.5 seconds).
* If you wish to record a new phrase at the same tempo as the
previously selected phrase, press the TAP TEMPO button
once.
* You can create a loop phrase with the Loop Quantize

ly following overdubbing or recording, save it to a
phrase track (p. 32).
