This screen lets you specify the ratio for time stretch/ compress in two ways, as listed below (the current selection flashes).

• Stretch ratio (%)

Expresses the length of the track after time stretch/compress. The setting range is 50% - 150%.

• Tempo (BPM)

Sets the tempo (beats per minute) after time stretch/ compress, using the tempo set in the rhythm song as reference. The default value is the tempo set at the beginning of the current rhythm song.

3. Use the cursor left/right keys to select the unit for making the time stretch/compress setting.

The flashing section moves.

4. Turn the dial to make the time stretch/compress setting.

When you change one item, the other item also changes

accordingly.

NOTE

Also when using the BPM item for making the setting, the

setting range of 50% - 150% cannot be exceeded.

5. Press the PLAY [R] key, and then press the STOP[P] key at the stretch/compress end point.

The stretched or compressed track will be played back, and when you press the STOP [P] key, the display will ask "TimStrch SURE?", asking you to confirm the time stretch/ compress operation.

6. To execute the time stretch/compress operation,press the [ENTER] key.

By using the [EXIT] key instead of the [ENTER] key, you can move back to previous screens.

When the time stretch/compress operation is executed, the indication “TimStrch COMPLETE” appears on the display, and the unit returns to the track edit menu.
