Locate measure
When checked, the measure shown by this parameter is a tem-
porary start point of the song, instead of measure 1. When you
press the (PLAY/STOP) button to stop recording, or use
the << (REWIND) button to go back to the beginning, the Song
returns to this point.
Resolution
Use this parameter to set the quantization during recording.
Quantization is a way of correcting timing errors; notes played
too soon or too late are moved to the nearest axis of a rhythmic
"grid", set with this parameter, thus playing perfectly in time.
High No quantization applied.
(1/32)... (1/8)
Grid resolution, in musical values. For example,
when you select 1/16, all notes are moved to the
nearest 1/16 division. When you select 1/8, all
notes are moved to the nearest 1/8 division.
No quantiza-
tion
1/16

Start and End locators. These parameters area available only
when the "Auto Punch" recording mode is selected. They set the
starting and ending points of the Punch recording.
Metro (Metronome)
This is the metronome heard during recording.

ing. A one-bar precount will be played before
starting recording.

Tempo
Select this parameter, and use the TEMPO or VALUE controls to
set the tempo.
Note: You can always change the Tempo, when other parameters
are selected, by keeping the SHIFT button pressed, and rotating the
DIAL.
Meter
This is the basic meter (or time signature) of the Song. You can
edit this parameter only when the Song is empty, i.e., before you
begin recording anything. To insert a meter change in the mid-
dle of the Song, use the "Insert Measure" function (see
page 193).
Tempo (Tempo mode)
This parameter sets the way tempo events are read or recorded.
Manual Manual reading. The latest manual Tempo setting
(made using the TEMPO controls) is considered
the current Tempo value. No Tempo change
events will be recorded. This is very useful when
you want to record the Song at a much slower
speed than the actual Tempo.
Auto Auto reading. The Sequencer plays back all
recorded Tempo events. No Tempo change events
are recorded.
Record All Tempo changes made during recording will
be recorded to the Master Track.
Note: Tempo is always recorded in overwrite mode
(old data is replaced by the new data).
