About Rhythm
Sounding a Rhythm
1. Press the [RHYTHM ON/OFF] button
to switch the rhythm sound between
playing and stopped.
• Use the [RHYTHM OUTPUT LEVEL] knob to adjust the
volume of the rhythm.
• The [TAP TEMPO] button will blink in time with the
rhythm (red on the first beat, green on subsequent
beats).
• When you save a phrase (p. 10), the rhythm type and
time signature selected at that time will also be saved.
Setting the Tempo
When recording, you can set the tempo before you start
recording. When playing back a saved phrase, you can
change the playback tempo without changing the pitch of
the phrase.
1. Use the [ ] / [ ] buttons to select the
phrase memory whose tempo you want
to set.
2. Press the [TAP TEMPO] button several
times at the desired tempo.
The tempo will be set to the interval at which you
press the button.
Alternatively, you can set the tempo
by pressing the right pedal repeatedly
while stopped.
• If the RC-30 is stopped, the rhythm ([RHYTHM ON/
OFF] button) will turn on after you set the tempo.
* You can only change the tempo of phrases that
have been saved in phrase memory. If you want to
change the tempo of a phrase immediately after
recording or overdubbing, you must first save it to
phrase memory (p. 10).
* There are limitations on the proportion of the
possible tempo change.
* You can't specify a tempo that would cause the
phrase to loop in a shorter time than the minimum
recording time (approximately 1.5 seconds).
The tempo setting is stored when you save the phrase
(p. 10).
