When you select this setting, phrase playback start is aligned to the measure start of the rhythm song. If one measure of the phrase (phrase playback range divided by number of measures specified by MEAS X parameter) is longer than one measure of the rhythm song, the phrase is switched when the number of measures specified by the MEAS X (→ P.61) parameter has played, without waiting for the end

of the phrase. If one measure of the phrase is shorter than one measure of the rhythm song, there will be a blank until the measure where playback switches to the next phrase.
