To change the playback tempo

There are two different methods you can use to change the tempo setting: by pressing q (faster) and w (slower) buttons or by tapping a beat with a button.

■To adjust the tempo using the  (TEMPO w, q) buttons

Each press of a button increases or decreases the beats per minute value by one.

•Holding down either button changes the value at high speed.

•Pressing both of the  (TEMPO w, q) buttons at the same time will return the song to its default tempo.

•You can specify a tempo value in the range of 20 to 255.

■To adjust the tempo by tapping a beat

1. While holding down the  (FUNCTION) button, tap the q  (TEMPO) button four times in time with the beat you want to specify.

•The tempo setting will change in accordance with the timing of your tapping.

•After you use this method to specify the approximate

tempo, you can then use the procedure under “To adjust the tempo using the  (TEMPO w, q) buttons” to adjust the setting to a more exact value.

•The setting will be canceled if you release the  (FUNCTION) button before tapping the q  (TEMPO) button four times.
