■Using the tempo map
Generating a tempo map from mark points
A tempo map can be created from mark points that were assigned according to the tempo of an
1.Press [SYSTEM] several times until “SYS Sync/Tempo?” appears.
2.Press [YES].
3.Press PARAMETER [ 
].
The display will indicate ÒSYS Syn:GenÓ.
4.Rotate the TIME/VALUE dial. In this case, choose MIDIClk.
Gen (Sync generator)
This selects the type of synchronization signal that will be transmitted from the MIDI OUT connector. When using a synchronization signal from the
Off: Synchronization signals will not be transmit- ted.
MTC: MIDI Time Code will be transmitted.
MIDIClk: MIDI Clock will be transmitted.
SyncTr: MIDI Clock data recorded on the sync track will be transmitted.
5.Press PARAMETER [ 
] several times to get the “SYS Sync.Tr Cnv?” display.
6.Press [YES].
7.Rotate the TIME/VALUE dial. In this case, choose CV2.
CV (Convert)
CV1=Tap ➝ S.Tr: Create a sync track from mark points.
CV2=Tap ➝ T.Map: Create a tempo map from mark points.
CV3=S.Tr ➝ T.Map: Create a tempo map from the sync track.
CV4=Time ➝ S.Tr: Automatically create a sync track.
8.Press PARAMETER [ 
].
The display will indicate ÒSYS CV:Beat=Ó.
9.Specify the number of beats in one measure. Rotate the TIME/VALUE dial.

].
The display will indicate ÒSYS CV:Tap Beat=Ó.
11.Specify the number of mark points in each measure. Rotate the TIME/VALUE dial.
12.Press [YES].
A message will ask you to confirm that you wish to re- create the tempo map.
13.Press [YES] once again.
The tempo map will be created.
■Adding an offset to the sync
track/tempo map
It is now possible to create the sync track / tempo map starting from the time location at which recording began. The sync track / tempo map will be created starting at Ò00h00m00s00Ó. However in actuality, recording does not usually start at Ò00h00m00s00Ó.
For example if you began recording at Ò00h00m10s00Ó, you can move the beginning of the sync track / tempo track to Ò00h00m10s00Ó.
*During recording or playback, when the starting time location of the sync track/tempo track is reached, a Start message will be transmitted from the MIDI OUT connec- tor. This is convenient when you wish to synchronize operation with an external MIDI sequencer, etc.
1.Press [SYSTEM] several times until the “SYS Sync/Tempo ?” display appears.
2.Press [YES].
3.Press PARAMETER [ 
] several times until the “SYS Ofs=00000000” display appears.
4.Input the time at which you want the sync track / tempo track to begin. Rotate the TIME/VALUE dial.
< Using [NUMERICS] >
By using [NUMERICS], you can use the ten LOCATOR buttons as numeric keys to directly enter numbers. Refer to ÒUsing the numeric keysÓ (p.44).
5.Press [PLAY].
You will return to Play condition.
