The BPM will automatically be calculated and displayed
according to the time length that was sampled.
(If
BPM
was input, this will be the time between the Start and
End points.)
If
the sampling time is two or more measures or is less than
one measure, the BPM display value may be double or half
the correct value. In this case, press the
'f' A
buttons to set
the desired value. (Refer to page 25 "Viewing and changing
the BPM value after sampling") Please be aware that in some
cases (such as triple meter), it may not be possible to calcu-
late or adjust the BPM value accurately.
If
you press the blinking pad (i.e., the one currently being
sampled) instead of pressing the SAMPLING
START /STOP button, sampling will end, and the cur-
rently-sampled sound will automatically be played back.
