This turns the metronome sound on (YES) or off (NO) while you are playing a sequence.
•
In rec:
This turns the metronome sound on (YES) or off (NO) while you are recording a sequence.
•
Rate:
This sets the note value of the metronome. For example, to play at quarter notes, set it to 1/
4 and for eight notes to 1/8.
•
Wait for key:
Set this ON to start a sequence recording with MIDI signals from external devices such as
MIDI keyboards.
When the Wait for key: is on, recording will not start when you press the REC and PLAY
keys, but will be in the stand-by mode. Recording starts when the MPC2000XL receives a
MIDI signal from an external MIDI keyboard. In this case, the first MIDI signal received to
start recording will not be recorded.
This is convenient when the MPC2000XL and the MIDI keyboard are not located close
together during recording.
