Recording; Playing Back A Performance - Yamaha DTX Drums DTX502 Owner's Manual

Basic Techniques
Recording Your Performances
 Tempo
You can set the song tempo at which you wish to record your performance.
 Quantize
Quantization is a function that corrects any small deviations in the timing of your
performance. The DTX502 can make recordings quantized based on a specified
note length. The available quantization settings are as follows.
• When 3/8, 6/8, 9/8, 12/8, or 15/8 is set as the time signature:
á ⁄
, ,
• When a time signature other than the above is set:
⁄ ⁄A
,
Example of how quantizing works
