Use Selected Channel knob 1 to change the
overall effect of the compressor.
When the knob is operated the DYNAMICS screen
Comp Edit page will appear. If Selected Channel knob
1 is operated while the [DYN] key is engaged, multi-
ple compressor parameters are adjusted simulta-
neously to change the overall effect of the compressor
(the actual change will depend on the preset selected
from the library).
NOTE
• If a Selected Channel knob is operated while the AUTO DIS-
PLAY function is OFF, rather than the display switching to the
Comp Edit page a popup window containing the relevant
parameters will appear. For details about the AUTO DISPLAY
function refer to "AW2400 Preferences" on page 210.
Move the cursor to the metronome button
and press the [ENTER] key.
The metronome will be turned on. In this state the
metronome will sound during recording and playback.
The metronome will begin sounding when
the PLAY [ ] key is pressed to begin play-
back.
Move the cursor to the metronome knob and use the
[DATA/JOG] dial or [INC]/[DEC] keys to adjust the
metronome level as required.
To change the tempo or time signature, first
press the STOP [■] key to stop the
recorder. Call the EDIT screen Tempo Map
page by either pressing the Work Navigate
section [EDIT] key as many times as neces-
sary, or by pressing the [F2] key after
pressing the [EDIT] key.
The Tempo Map page lets you create a tempo map that
specifies the tempo and time signature of the song.
The tempo and time signature that you specify here
will be the basis for the measure/beat display counter,
the internal metronome, and the MTC (MIDI Time
Code) transmitted and received by the AW2400.
