The BEAT LOOP FUNCTION is used to match the tempo of two phrase samples playing in a loop.
Phrases will start to slip out of sync when multiple phrase samples playing in a loop are played
back at different tempos. In order to solve this, it is necessary to change the pitch of each sample
to match the tempos.
Since the Beat Loop function calculates the loop bar length, this setting does not effect one-shot
(non-looped) sounds.
•
Beat:
Set the length of the looped phrase sample here (number of beats). For example, in a four
beat sample piece, if the length is four beats (one bar), enter 4.
•
Sample tempo:
This is related to the length of the sample. The original tempo of the sample is calculated
from the length of the sample and the number of beats set in the Beat: field.
•
New tempo:
The tempo of the sound is determined by the tune settings on the left. To match the tempo
with other sounds, refer to this field as you set the Tune: field on the left. To make the
tempo of the two phrases match, set the value of the New tempo: of each phrase
sample to be the same by adjusting the Tune: setting.
