Changing the time signature in the middle of a
song
If you know beforehand the location at which you wish to
change time signatures in the middle of a song, use the
"Insert Measure" menu command to specify and insert the
time signature for each measure of the same time signature,
and then record your musical data.
If you wish to change the time signature in the middle of a
song which already contains musical data, use Track Select
to specify the Master Track (or any Track01–16 which
contains data), and use the "MIDI Event Edit" menu
command to modify the time signature of the Bar event. You
can also change this by specifying an audio track and using
the "Automation Edit" menu command.
If the number of beats in a measure increases when you
modify the time signature, rests will be inserted in the
portion that was added. Conversely if the number of beats
decreases, that portion will not be played. However if you
return to the original time signature, the data that had been
hidden will once again be played. (The data itself will not be
erased.)
REC Resolution (Realtime REC Quantize
Resolution)
This lets you correct timing as you record. It applies to all
MIDI data, including notes and continuous controllers, as
well as audio track automation.
Note that this does not affect previously-recorded data, or
audio event data.
Important: The REC Resolution affects all MIDI and
audio automation data. This can cause "stair-steps" in
recorded controller data, such as pitch bend.
If you don't want this effect, set REC Resolution to Hi
when recording, and then use the Quantize menu
command afterward to correct only the desired type of
data (such as notes).
Hi (High Resolution): Timing will not be corrected, and
data will be recorded at the maximum resolution (q/480).
r3 – q : Timing will be corrected to the nearest interval of the
specified rhythmic value. For example, if you select r3, data
will be corrected to the nearest 32nd-note triplet interval. If
you select q, data will be corrected to the nearest quarter note
interval.
Audio events are always recorded at the maximum,
uncorrected resolution.

Tempo Mode
Auto: The tempo will follow the tempo of the Master Track.
The tempo of the master track can be specified by using the
MIDI Event Edit menu command, with the Master Track
chosen in Track Select, or by the REC operation described
below. When Auto is selected, it will not be possible to
modify the "q (Tempo)" setting while a song is playing or
recording (or during standby).
Manual: The "q (Tempo)" setting will be used.
REC: Tempo changes will be recorded on the Master Track.
q (Tempo)
This specifies the tempo of the song. This tempo applies to
song playback and KARMA, etc.
040.00...300.00: When the "Tempo Mode" is Manual, this
tempo will be used for recording and playback. When
"Tempo Mode" is REC, this tempo will be recorded on the
master track.
EXT: This will appear when MIDI Clock (Global 1–1a) is
set to either External MIDI or Auto. The tempo of the
internal sequencer will synchronize with MIDI Clock
messages received from an external sequencer or other MIDI
device, between 40 and 240 BPM.
If MIDI Clock (Global 1–1a) is set to "Internal," the above
tempo setting (040.00–240.00) is used. If you've selected
Auto, operation will automatically switch from Internal to
External if MIDI Clock data is received from an external
MIDI device connected to the MIDI IN connector, and this
indication will appear.
Note: You can also adjust this by turning the TEMPO knob.
Alternatively, you can set the tempo by pressing the TAP
TEMPO switch at the desired interval.
Note: If Tempo is selected as an alternate modulation source,
q = 120.00 will be the base value.
To record tempo changes
First, set Track Select to a MIDI Track.
Press the SEQUENCER REC/WRITE switch to enter
recording-standby mode, you will be able to select REC.
Set Tempo Mode to REC, start recording, and change the
system tempo either by turning the TEMPO knob, or using
numeric keys 0–9 to enter a value and then pressing the
ENTER switch. You can also vary the tempo by pressing the
TAP TEMPO switch at the desired timing.
This cannot be selected when the Preferences page item
Recording Setup is set to Loop All Tracks.
When you change the "q (Tempo)" value while recording, the
tempo changes will be recorded, causing the tempo to
change as the song progresses.
You can't record tempo changes during audio recording.
Tempo changes can also be created using the "MIDI Event
Edit" or "Create Control Data" menu commands.
Note: If you wish to record only the tempo changes, set
Recording Setup (0–5a) to Overdub, and the tempo will be
recorded on the master track without being affected by the
musical data of Track Select.
Song Select
Select the song that you want to record or play back.
