4. Specifying the tempo
As an alternative to playing your entire song at the same
tempo, you can make the tempo change during the song,
or synchronize the tempo to an external MIDI device.
Choose one of the following tempo sources to control the
tempo of the song.
• Manual tempo: when the tempo is the same for the
entire song
• Tempo map: when you want the tempo to change dur-
ing the song
• Tempo track: when you want to use the tempo
recorded from MIDI Clock or Tap Tempo
The tempo source is set by the [TEMPO/RHYTHM]
"SetUp" tab page "TempoSource" setting.

Manual tempo
When you use manual tempo, the song will play back
according to the "Tempo" (tempo), "Beat" (time
signature), and "SelRhythm" (rhythm pattern) settings;
the tempo etc. will not change during the song.

For details on "Tempo," "Beat," and "SelRhythm"
settings, refer to "1. Specifying and playing a
rhythm" (→p.71).
Tempo map
The tempo map lets you specify tempo, time signature,
and rhythm pattern for each measure so that these will
change at the specified measure within the song.

Select "TempoSource," and turn the [VALUE] dial to

The tempo map for a song consists of tempo map
event "001" which specifies the initial tempo at
the beginning of the song, and tempo map events
"002"–"200" which you can specify to change the
tempo etc. at measures within the song.
