Playing Multiple Phrases
Simultaneously (Simul-Start)
In Multi mode, there may be instances when you want to start
playback of a phrase other than the current phrase along with the
current phrase.
By setting Simul-Start, you can always start playback simultaneously
with the current phrase.
fig.04-220d
The Simul-Start On/Off status for the three phrases is indicated in
the screen.
After pressing PARAMETER [
rotate the PATCH/VALUE dial to switch the function on or off.
• Holding down a PHRASE pedal for at least two seconds in
Multi mode while the phrase is stopped switches on Simul-Start
for that phrase.
Holding down the pedal again for at least two seconds switches
the Simul-Start setting to OFF again.
• Pressing the REC/PLAY/OVERDUB pedal always starts
recording or playback, regardless of whether or not the current
phrase has Simul-Start on or off.
Example:
When Phrase 1 is the current phrase and Simul-Start is set to
ON only for Phrase 2 and Phrase 3, all phrases start playing
when the REC/PLAY/OVERDUB pedal is pressed.
• Using the All Start function (p. 61) is a convenient way to have
all three phrases play back simultaneously.

Setting Tempo Synchronization
with MIDI (MIDI Sync)
This procedure is used to make the settings for performing at the
same tempo as a performance from an external MIDI device
(synchronized performance).
For more detailed information about MIDI and synchronization,
refer to "What You Can Do with MIDI" (p. 74).
fig.04-211d
Available Settings Description
Performances are normally played at the patch
tempo set with the RC-50, but when the RC-50 is
stopped and MIDI start message is received, the
AUTO
performance automatically starts playing at the
tempo determined by the MIDI clock data from
the external MIDI device.
Performances are played at the tempo set with
the RC-50, with recording, playback, and over-
INTERNAL
dubbing carried out with the RC-50's controls.
Although performances are played at the tempo
set with the RC-50, the start of recording, play-
REMOTE
back, and stopping (only) are controlled with the
external MIDI device.
