DATA wheel.

•

(SEQ)

Each sequence that you play back may have a different tempo. When (SEQ) is selected,

the sequence’s tempo is displayed in the Tempo field. It is possible to set this tempo for

each sequence individually. When playing sequences, this is useful if you want each se-

quence to play at its preset tempo. The sequence’s tempo is saved to disk along with se-

quence data when a sequence is saved.

•

(MAS)

The master tempo is a single tempo setting that applies to all sequences and songs. When

playing sequences this is useful if you always want each selected sequence to play at the

same tempo. This can be especially useful in the “Next sequence” mode, where following

sequences may have different tempos and you want them to all play at the same tempo.

This tempo setting is not saved in the sequence file.
