10. EDIT TRIGGER

P1 Threshold level adjustment

1

ThrLev:050

P1-1Threshold level adjustment

[001...100]

When trigger recording is used, this parameter speci- fies the audio input level that will initiate recording. When in record ready mode, recording will begin when this level is exceeded.

Since the appropriate level will depend on the source that is being input, try various threshold level settings to find the best setting.

P2 Pre trigger time setting

1

PrTrg:000m

P2-1Pre trigger time setting

[000...700 m (s)]

Specifies the pre trigger time during which the sound will be recorded before the actual trigger time.

When trigger recording is used, the initial part of the sound may be lost for sounds with a rapid attack, such as percussion.

By setting the pre trigger time, you can enable the recording to include the low-volume portion that is heard before the trigger threshold level is reached.

Since the appropriate time setting will depend on the source that is being input, try various pre trigger times to find the best setting.

At the beginning of the song, this will have no effect.

If you begin recording at the end of a previously recorded track, setting the pre trigger time to other than 000 ms will cause the recording to overlap part of the previously recorded sound, causing the end of that sound to be cut off.

11. TEMPO

P1 Tempo map settings

Specifies the tempo and time signature of the song.

If you wish to listen to the metronome sound while you set the tempo, turn on the metronome (refer to METRONOME) before entering this page.

P1-1 Tempo map number select

[0 9]...

Selects the tempo map number

0: This is the basic tempo map placed at the beginning of the song. It is not possible to specify the location (P1-4) for this.

1...9: These are tempo maps which can be placed else- where than the beginning of the song. Select these when you wish to change the tempo or time signature in the middle of a song.

P1-2 Tempo setting

[40...240, (Trk)]

Specifies a song tempo of q =40–240.

This parameter can be set if Map has been selected as the tempo source (refer to EDIT TEMPO P1).

If Trk has been selected as the tempo source, this page will indicate Trk, and it will not be possible to specify the tempo. In this case, playback (recording) will occur at the tempo which was recorded during tempo recording (refer to EDIT TEMPO P2).

If you modify the tempo after recording, the measures and time signature shown in the location counter will no longer match the audio in the tracks. In order to bring these back into correspondence, use Tap Tempo recording (refer to EDIT TEMPO).

Specifies the time signature.

 

P1-4

Map location setting

[000 (Delete Map),

 

001...999 Meas (set in measure units)]

Specifies the location of the tempo map (i.e., the time at which the setting will begin to change). Simulta- neously press the [ ] and [ ] keys to move to the location counter.

This cannot be set if the tempo map number (P1-1) is 0.

000: Select this when you wish to delete the tempo map. Select 000 for the tempo map that you wish to delete, and it will be deleted when you exit this page.

001...999: Specify the location in the range of measure 1–999.

You can move a tempo map regardless of the location of earlier or later tempo maps.

However when you exit P1, tempo map numbers (P1-

1)will be automatically renumbered from low to high, starting from the beginning of the song (i.e., based on the time location within the song).
