Tempo
The Tempo setup menu displays the loop tempo in BPMs (beats per minute) and 
allows you to manually adjust the tempo setting. You can first set a tempo by using 
the <TEMPO> button and then adjust it further in this menu. An empty loop has no 
tempo so pressing the <UP/DOWN> buttons while in the Tempo menu will set a 
default tempo of 120BPM. You can also adjust (Time Stretch) the tempo of a stored 
loop using this option without changing pitch of the phrase (see “Operation > Time 
Stretching a Phrase
”).
To set the Tempo before recording a loop:
1.  Select an empty memory location 
using the <UP/DOWN> buttons 
(LOOP and SINGLE LEDs will be off).
2.  Press the <SETUP> button twice until  
tPO appears in the display. 
3.  Use the <UP/DOWN> buttons to 
adjust the tempo. If a tempo has not 
been set, pressing either button once 
will set the default tempo of 120BPM.
4.  Once tempo is set, press the 
<STORE> button twice to store 
the changes or press the <PEDAL 
SWITCH>
 to exit the Setup menu 
without storing. 
NOTE: You can also set the tempo by tapping the <PEDAL SWITCH> (when Pedal Tempo is 
enabled). See ”Operation > Recording a Loop (Auto Quantize)”.
