The Style Tempo; Tempo Lock; Saving The Tempo To A Performance; Saving The Tempo In One Of The 16 Direct Style Memory Slots - GEM WK2 Owner's Manual

The Style Tempo

The Tempo of a Style can be changed by rotating the DIAL (TEMPO/DATA), either before or
after starting the Style and regardless of the status of the TEMPO LOCK button.
Important: Use the DIAL with care: in certain situations, this control may affect other pa-
rameters; for example, if a Style track is flashing, the Dial will change the relative Volume.
The current tempo can be saved to a Performance. This provides you with another possi-
bility of setting the Tempo. To recap, you can:
a) select the Style with Single Touch Play active to recall the original Tempo setting
stored in ROM,
b) recall a Style using the Direct Style Memory buttons where the previously memorised
Style was saved with a different Tempo setting;
c) select a Performance to recall a previously memorised Tempo setting.
d) lock the current Tempo setting for all Style changes by activating the Tempo Lock
function.

TEMPO LOCK

The TEMPO LOCK function locks the current Style Tempo allowing you to recall Styles
without changing the Tempo, regardless of the status of the Single Touch Play button.
Nevertheless, it is always possible to change the Tempo in real time by rotating the DIAL.
The activation of TEMPO LOCK is shown in the display with the alternate flashing of the
Tempo setting and the word "LOC".
When Tempo Lock is on, the Tempo setting remains fixed for all subsequent Style and
Performance selections.
When TEMPO LOCK is off, the selection of a Style or a Performance recalls the memorised
Tempo setting.

SAVING THE TEMPO TO A PERFORMANCE

To save the current Tempo setting to a Performance, carry out the following procedure:
1. Select a Performance which you intend to use to save a new Tempo setting.
2. Rotate the DIAL to set the new Tempo.
3. Press and hold the STORE PERFORMANCE button for a few seconds.
4. Press ENTER to confirm the request shown in the display ("?").
The save operation can also be carried out while the Style is playing.

SAVING THE TEMPO IN ONE OF THE 16 DIRECT STYLE MEMORY SLOTS

1. Select the Style whose Tempo you wish to change.
2. Rotate the DIAL to set the new Tempo.
3. Hold down one of the direct access memory buttons for a few seconds.
4. The flashing display inscription confirms the completion of the memorisation.
