Converting the Note Timing of a
Pattern (Reclock)
You can double or halve the timing of the musical data
recorded in a pattern. For example, you can convert a four-
measure pattern of BPM=120 to two measures so it will play
back identically at a BPM of 60. When you wish to connect
patterns of radically differing BPM, it is a good idea to use
the Reclock operation to match the timing values of the two
patterns.
