NOW
To insert the tempo change event, press INSERT [F5] and select the bar.beat.tick field and then
set the tempo change event point, and set the tempo with %: or :. Press NOW [F3]to input the
current point as the Tempo Change event point.
The %: and : work together, so if you change the value of one, the other will change corre-
spondingly.
To make changes to the Tempo Change events, move the cursor to the event field that you want
to change and change the various settings.
Note: When you are changing the tempo change event by selecting the bar.beat.tick field
when multiple tempo change events are entered, you cannot set an event time
beyond the area directly before or after the data you are trying to change. For ex-
ample, if there is a tempo change event at points 002.01.00, 003.01.00 and
004.01.00, it is not possible to change the data before 002.01.00 or after 004.01.00
when you are changing 003.01.00.
When there are many tempo change events entered, it is possible to scroll the screen with the
CURSOR UP or DOWN keys.
To delete the tempo change event, select the tempo change event you want to delete with the
CURSOR UP or DOWN key and press DELETE [F2].
A lower case c will be displayed in front of the tempo field : on the main screen when Tempo
Change is ON and the tempo has been changed from the original set tempo by Tempo Change
event.
Note: The initial tempo is the basis of the tempo in the sequence. When Tempo Change is
set to OFF, the tempo field value and the initial tempo are the same. When Tempo
Change is set to ON, the value of the tempo field in the Main Screen shows the
tempo changed according to the Tempo Change event.
