Guide

In the Groove Check display, you can view the result of the check and see how accurate your timing is in real time. With the center line being correct timing, hits indicated at the left are early, and hits on the right are late. For details on each indication, see below.

This white line represents the average timing of all your hits so far in this session.

the pad was hit last.This crosshatch area indicates the range of all your hits so far in this session.

NOTE

•The interval between the left end (EARLY position) and the right

end (LATE position) is equivalent to the length of a 16th note.

Here, you can set which pads (signals received via the Trigger Input jacks) will be monitored by Rhythm Gate. Any (or all) pads can be selected, and up to five different pads can be monitored at once.

The “ALL” indication shows the result for all sounds (from all pads). The “NO ASGN” indication means no pad is selected. Lines showing other values indicate the result for the signal received via the corresponding Trigger Input jack.

BRhythm Gate Range

The crosshatch bar graph which indicates the hit timing range (regarded by Rhythm Gate as correct) is specified by setting the EARLY value and LATE value for each Trigger Input. From this display, the pad sound is produced only when hitting the pad within this timing window.

NOTE

•This parameter can be set in 1/ 120 of a 16th note. The distance

from the left edge to the right

edge of the display will be equiva- lent to length of 16th note.

Range -59 – +59
