6. Supply the MIDI clock from the external MIDI

device.

The delay time or rate is set according to the tempo of the

supplied MIDI clock and the tap beat parameter set for

the respective patch (see below).

7. If desired, store the patch.

The parameter changed by MIDI clock tap input will

revert to the original setting when the patch is switched.

To retain the change, you should therefore store the

patch.

• When the patch was stored and the same patch is then

called up again, it suffices to supply the MIDI clock to

automatically adjust delay time or rate according to the

clock tempo.

• If a parameter was set by MIDI clock tap input and is

then changed by moving the control knob for that

parameter, the control knob setting will override the MIDI

clock tap input.

• The RFX-2200 counts 24 MIDI clock pulses as one

interval, using 1-ms units. The maximum interval that can

be measured is 2 seconds.

1. When using two RFX-2200 units, connect the

MIDI OUT connector on the first RFX-2200 to

the MIDI IN connector of the second RFX-

2200, and connect the MIDI OUT connector on

the second RFX-2200 to the MIDI IN

connector on the first RFX-2200. The MIDI

channel must be set to a matching setting.

Connection example for two RFX-2200 units

When using a MIDI sequencer or other MIDI device,

connect the MIDI OUT connector on the RFX-2200 to

the MIDI IN connector of the MIDI sequencer.

2. Press the MIDI key of the sending RFX-2200

three times.

The indication "dt" and the indication "AL" are shown

alternately on the display.

3. Use the VALUE UP/DOWN keys to select the

type of data to be sent.

• AL

All patch data and learn table

• Current patch number

Current patch data only (if editing, data currently being

edited)

4. To execute the data transfer, press the STORE

key.

The sending RFX-2200 starts to transmit the data. (The

data are received automatically by the receiving RFX-

2200. No special steps are necessary.) During the

transfer, the indication "dt" flashes on the display of the

1. In play mode, select a patch for which tap

input is possible.

• The tap beat setting is made individually for each patch.

2. Press the MIDI key five times.

The indication "bt" and the number showing the tap beat

note length setting are shown alternately on the display.

3. Use the VALUE UP/DOWN keys to set the note

length.

4. Press the CANCEL key.

The RFX-2200 returns to the play mode. To store the tap

beat setting for the patch, perform the store operation.

NOTE:

The tap beat setting will take effect the next time tap input is

performed or the tempo is set by MIDI clock input.

Press 5 times

The tap beat is a parameter that determines the length of the reference beat used for setting the delay time or rate when using the

tap input feature. For example, if the tap beat is set to "4" (quarter note), the length of one beat of the MIDI clock (24 clock

signals) or the interval in which the TAP key is hit will be taken as the delay time or rate. When the tap beat setting is "8" (eighth

note), the setting will be one half.

The patch information and learn table information stored internally in the RFX-2200 can be output via the MIDI link. This can be

used for example to exchange settings between two RFX-2200 units, or to store the data on a MIDI sequencer. The data can then

be reloaded into the RFX-2200 whenever required.

oF For this patch, MIDI clock input is not used. The interval in which

the TAP key is hit is taken directly as delay time or rate

parameter.
