Notes Are Delayed or Unsteady
During Playback
¥ If you create a pattern that contains an extremely
large amount of data, or if you input an excessive
amount of knob data, notes may be delayed or
unsteady during playback. This problem can also
occur if the tempo is speeded up excessively, or
for some combinations of Megamix.
Delete unneeded note data or knob data. Use Data
Thin to thin out knob data (p. 152).
Use Move Event to move notes that were input at
the same location as chords, so that they are stag-
gered by 1 clock (p. 143).
Use Shift Clock to move data of parts other than the
rhythm part backward by 1 clock (p. 151).
