MIDI/Tempo Sync
MIDI/Tempo Sync lets you synchronize effects LFOs and
delay times to the system tempo. For more information, see
"Tempo Synchronization" on page 734 of the PG.
Using MIDI/Tempo Sync to synchronize
delay time to tempo
1. Set up the effects as described under "Dmod
Example" on page 230.
2. Set BPM to MIDI.
3. For L, C, and R, set the Delay Base Note and Times as
desired.
Common FX LFO
Two Common FX LFOs are available for modulation
effects, such as choruses, filters, phasers, etc. In the
Common FX LFO page of PROGRAM, COMBINATION,
SEQUENCER or SAMPLING modes, you can specify the
reset conditions and speed of Common FX LFO 1 and 2.
Normally, the LFOs of two or more modulation-type effects
used simultaneously will not have synchronized phase even
if you set them to the identical Frequency, since the LFOs
are being generated independently.
However if you select Common 1 or Common 2 for the LFO
Type parameter of a modulation-type effect, the effect will
use not its own individual LFO but the Common LFO you
specify here. This allows you to use a single Common FX
LFO to simultaneously control two or more modulation-type
effects such as flanger, phaser, or auto-pan with the same
phase. Since you can make independent settings for LFO
waveform and phase offset for each effect, you are free to
create complex combinations of effects.

Detailed effects editing MIDI/Tempo Sync
For this example, set Delay Base Note to and Times to
x1 so that the effect will be easily understandable. The
delay time will repeat at an interval of a 8th note.
4. Change the tempo, and the delay time will change.
When you (push the joystick away from yourself and)
press the SW1 button, the feedback level will rise, and the
delays will become longer.
5. When you turn on the ARP button, Arpeggiator will
begin playing.
Select any desired Arpeggiator Pattern. When you change
the tempo setting by TAP button, etc., the delay time will
change in synchronization with the changing tempo of the
Arpeggio Pattern.
Depending on the specific delay effect, you may hear a
noise if you change the tempo while the delay is
sounding. This is because the delay sound becomes
discontinuous, and is not a malfunction.
For some effects, you can synchronize the LFO
frequency to the tempo. Set the effect parameters
MIDI/TEMPO Sync to On, and BPM to MIDI. For
more information, see "Tempo Synchronization" on
page 734 of the PG.
