Half Bar
This function has been modified as such: if pressed during the first half of the
measure, the 1/2 bar fill is heard during the current measure. However if pressed
nd
during the 2
half of the measure, the 1/2 bar fill is played at the beginning of the
next measure.
Tempo accelerando/ritardando
By pressing Tempo button together in the STYLE mode, the Tempo related features
are displayed. Now, by touching and holding down for 2 seconds the ACC icon, you
can access editable parameters for both accelerando and ritardando. Touching either
the EXIT icon on the screen or on the panel returns the keyboard to the normal
screen. The new functions available in the EDIT mode are – Step, Lower, Limit and
Upper Limit.
Step
Once turned on, this allows you to change the « rate » of acceleration or
deceleration, so the tempo will increase/decrease in steps of x, rather than
the default steps of 1:
Range from 1–20: the change in tempo will be proportional to the
quantity defined for each measure.
Range from 1‐20 beat: the tempo will be proportional to the value
defined by each bar
Lower Limit
Use to set the lowest tempo value the style can go to when Ritardando is
used, however please note that the value for the tempo (set in View => Drum)
will take precedence over any minimum tempo value set.
Upper Limit
Use to set the highest tempo value the style can go to when Accelerando is
used, however please note that the value for the tempo (set in View => Drum)
will take precedence over any maximum tempo value set.
The default values are: Step=5 (bar), Lower Limit=40, Upper Limit = 250.
The defined values can be saved within the CUSTOM STARTUP. The accelerando &
ritardando set values can also be saved within each style independently. If a style has
these values, these will super exceed the default values saved within the CUSTOM
STARTUP menu.
Once the style has been stopped, the values return either to the default numbers
(min = 40, max=250) or that stored within the CUSTOM STARTUP. In the PLAYER
mode (when using Midifiles), the values that have been 'edited' into or stored within
the Midifile are those that will be used (ranging from 1‐20 bars).
