About the BPM/MIDI SYNC function

BPM/MIDI SYNC can be used for most effects that have an LFO, such as 09:St. Wah/Auto Wah, and for some delay- type effects such as 49:L/C/R BPM Delay. You can apply modulation that is synchronized to the tempo, or specify the delay time in terms of a note value so that the effect will syn- chronize to the tempo of the arpeggiator or sequencer dur- ing a live performance even if you change the tempo. Parameters that allow BPM/MIDI SYNC to be used are

marked by a symbol at their right in the list of param- eters for each effect.

Example 1. LFO

“BPM/MIDI Sync” On “Base (Base Note)“ “Times” 1

In this case, each cycle of the LFO will be as long as one quarter note.

If “BPM” is set to MIDI, the effect will synchronize to the tempo of the arpeggiator or sequencer (or to an external MIDI clock). If “BPM” is in the range of 40–240, the specified value will be used.

Example 2. Delay Time

“L Bs (Base Note)” “Times” 1

“R Bs (Base Note)” “Times” 3

In this case, the delay time of the left channel will be the duration of an eighth note, and the delay time of the right channel will be the duration of a sixteenth note triplet.

When “BPM” is set to MIDI, the effect will synchronize to the tempo of the arpeggiator or sequencer (or to an external MIDI clock). If “BPM” is in the range of 40–240, the specified value will be used.

If the tempo, “Bs (Base Note),” and “Times” settings in con- junction would cause the maximum delay time to be exceeded, the warning “TimeOver? >OVER!” will appear in the display. Please modify your settings so that this setting does not appear. (The maximum delay time will depend on the effect type.)
