Tempo track
The tempo track records MIDI clock data from an
external device such as a MIDI sequencer, or records tap
tempo.
Recording MIDI clock data from an external MIDI
sequencer, and using it as the tempo track
Here's how MIDI clock tempo data from an external
MIDI sequencer can be recorded on the tempo track.
Use this when you wish to synchronize the D1600mkII
song with song data created on a MIDI sequencer in
which the tempo changes continuously.
1. Specify the time signature of the song.
If the time signature of the MIDI sequencer song data
changes during the song, you should create tempo
maps at the locations where the time signature
changes. (→"Tempo map")
If the time signature changes during the song, it
will be detected as an incorrect tempo unless you
have created a tempo map that matches the
changes in time signature. There is no need to
specify the tempo.
2. Connect the MIDI OUT of your MIDI sequencer to
the [MIDI IN] connector of the D1600mkII.
3. Make settings on your MIDI sequencer so that it
will transmit MIDI clock messages.
Refer to the owner's manual for your MIDI
sequencer.
4. Specify how tempo will be recorded.
In the [TEMPO/RHYTHM] "TmpTrk" tab page,
select "MIDI Clock."
5. Record the MIDI clock data.
Press the "RecStart" button to put the D1600mkII in
record-ready mode.
Start your MIDI sequencer.
When MIDI clock messages are received from the
MIDI sequencer, the display will indicate "Receiving-
MIDIClock."
6. When the MIDI sequencer finishes playing back,
stop the MIDI sequencer.
The D1600mkII will stop recording, and will display
"Complete." Press the "OK" button.
