Beat Effects [BPM mode]
Since the beat effect time of the beat effect [BPM mode] can be synchronized in real-time with the BPM (beats per minute), you can easily generate effects in time with the rhythm of a live performance. 1. Press the BPM MODE button to select the BPM (beatsper-minute) measurement mode.
AUTO: BPM is measured automatically from the input music source. MIDI: BPM is measured automatically based on the MIDI timing clock. TAP: BPM is input manually by tapping on the TAP button. ¶ When power is first turned ON, the mode defaults to AUTO. ¶ The selected mode is shown by the BPM mode indicator. ¶ In the event the input signal cannot be counted properly, the BPM COUNTER flashes. ¶ The measurement range in the AUTO mode is 70-180 BPM. Correct measurement may not be possible depending on the music track; in this event, input the tempo manually using the TAP mode.
Manual Input of Effect Time Using the TIME Dial Normally, the effect time is automatically set when a beat select button is pressed. However, the effect time can be set as desired using the TIME dial.
¶ When the effect time is changed, the beat select button lights for the beat automatically set in correspondence to the new effect time.
5. Pull the BEAT EFFECTS lever switch to ON to appy the effect.
When pushed away from you to the [ON/LOCK] position: The switch is locked on, so that the effect continues to be applied even if you remove your hand from the lever. To stop the effect, return the lever to the middle position [OFF]. When pulled toward you to the [ON] position: The effect is applied only while the lever is pulled to the [ON] position; when the lever is released, it returns automatically to the middle [OFF] position. Use this function when you wish to alternate rapidly between ON and OFF.
DEPTH dial
Set to the center center indent position for standard effect sounds. For more information regarding the change in parameter 1 in response to DEPTH dial rotation, see pages 35, 36, 38.
[Manual BPM input using the TAP button]
When the TAP button is tapped two or more times in time with the beat (quarter notes), the average value of the intervals is used to set BPM.
¶ When BPM is set to AUTO or MIDI mode, pressing the TAP button changes the BPM measuring mode to the TAP mode, and the unit measures the intervals at which the TAP button is struck. ¶ When BPM is set with the TAP button, the beat select button [1/1] is selected and the time of 1 beat (quarter notes) is set to the effect time.
CHARACTER dial
Set to the center center indent position for standard effect sounds. For more information regarding the change in parameter 2 in response to CHARACTER dial rotation, see pages 35, 36, 38.
MIX dial
Use to adjust the mixing balance of original and effect sounds. Set to the center indent position for standard effect sounds.
[Manual BPM input using the TIME dial]
BPM can be directly set by turning the TIME dial when the TAP button is held down.
¶ BPM can be set in 0.1 increments by pressing the BPM MODE button and turning the TIME dial while holding down the TAP button. Only decimal values are shown at this time.
