Model D2424LVmkII Reference Manual (Changing the Initial Settings <SETUP mode>)

Time Signature Setting

Using the "Setting a time signature" menu, you can
set a time signature of a given measure on the
internal programmable Tempo Map. And also in
this setting, the BAR (-002bar, 1 , 00clk) displayed
at the head of the disk in the time base BAR/BEAT/
CLK can be set within the range of -009bar ~ -002bar.
For example, you can specify "4/4 for the first and
second measures, and 2/2 from the third measure."
Setting a time signature and tempo will create a
Tempo Map, which allows the recorder to manage a
song using the BAR/BEAT/CLK Time Base. You can
also use the Metronome function.
A time signature and tempo setting are required
when MIDI clock & song position pointer are output
to an external sequencer.
• Initial Setting

* The setting can be saved or loaded as a part of the song

mode.
