Tempo
The Tempo setup menu displays the loop tempo in BPMs (beats per minute) and
allows you to manually adjust the tempo setting. You can first set a tempo by using
the <TEMPO> button and then adjust it further in this menu. An empty loop has no
tempo so pressing the <UP/DOWN> buttons while in the Tempo menu will set a
default tempo of 120BPM. You can also adjust (Time Stretch) the tempo of a stored
loop using this option without changing pitch of the phrase (see “Operation > Time
Stretching a Phrase
”).
To set the Tempo before recording a loop:
1. Select an empty memory location
using the <UP/DOWN> buttons
(LOOP and SINGLE LEDs will be off).
2. Press the <SETUP> button twice until
tPO appears in the display.
3. Use the <UP/DOWN> buttons to
adjust the tempo. If a tempo has not
been set, pressing either button once
will set the default tempo of 120BPM.
4. Once tempo is set, press the
<STORE> button twice to store
the changes or press the <PEDAL
SWITCH>
to exit the Setup menu
without storing.
NOTE: You can also set the tempo by tapping the <PEDAL SWITCH> (when Pedal Tempo is
enabled). See ”Operation > Recording a Loop (Auto Quantize)”.
