 Using the Tap Tempo function
The average interval (BPM) at which you press the USER DEFINED key will be calculated,
and that value will be applied to the BPM parameter.
NOTE
• If the average value is outside the range of 20–300 BPM, it will be ignored.
• If you turn on the MIDI CLK button in the special parameter field, the BPM parameter value will
change in relation to the tempo of the MIDI timing clock received from the MIDI port.
NOTE
• If the EFFECT EDIT popup window used to set TAP TEMPO is open, this popup window is not
displayed.
• With QL V3.0 and later, the delay value (msec) is also shown in the popup window.
