to the “Punch In/Out” function, and will finish

 

when pressing the same pedal again.

ing events.

Trk (Track)

Track in record.

1…16 One of the 16 tracks selected. To select a track, go to the Track pages (see “Tracks 1-8 page” on page 89 and “Tracks 9-16 page” on page 89).

Metronome on, with a one-bar precount

 

before starting recording.

On2

Metronome on, with a two-bar precount

 

before starting recording.

Resol (Resolution)

Use this parameter to set the quantization during record- ing. Quantization is a way of correcting timing errors; notes played too soon or too later are moved to the nearest axis of a rhythmic “grid”, set with this parameter, thus playing perfectly in time.

Hi

No quantization applied.

(1/32)…

(1/8)

 

Grid resolution, in musical values. For

 

example, when you select 1/16, all notes are

 

moved to the nearest 1/16 division. When

 

you select 1/8, all notes are moved to the

 

nearest 1/8 division.

No quanti-

 

zation

 

1/16

1/8

Meter

This is the meter (or time signature) of the Song. You can edit this parameter only when the Song is empty, i.e. before you begin recording anything. To insert a meter change in the middle of the Song, use the “Insert Measure” function (see page 13-101).

Sel.Tempo (Select Tempo)

Select this parameter to use the TEMPO/VALUE controls to set the tempo.

Note: You can always change the Tempo, when other parame- ters are selected, by keeping the SHIFT button pressed, and rotating the DIAL.

Note: The tempo is always record in overwrite mode (old data is replaced by the new data).

Tempo (Tempo mode)

This parameter sets the way tempo events are read.

Record

All Tempo changes made during recording will

 

be recorded to the Master Track.

Auto

The Sequencer plays back all recorded Tempo

 

events. No new Tempo events are recorded.

Manual

The latest manual Tempo setting (made using

 

the TEMPO/VALUE controls) is considered

 

the current Tempo value. No Tempo change

 

will be recorded. This is very useful to record

 

the Song much slower than its actual Tempo.
