Rate & BPM for Sequences
The RATE button can provide Rate, Fade and BPM override for any sequence. This will
affect the playback of the whole Sequence temporarily. When a Rate or BPM override is
cleared the original times are retained.
Press RATE and then the bump button of any sequence.
BPM
Beats Per Minute (BPM) is a musical term that can be applied to the playback rate of a
sequence in looped mode. The BPM rate is stored as an override to the wait time (step
time). All steps will be set to the same wait time override = the same duration.
Individual step times are not altered, however, if a step has a longer fade time than the BPM
time then this fade will not complete before the next step starts.
Original wait timing is not lost and may be recovered by clearing the BPM time.
