12.8 Metronome (8)
Here you can turn the metronome on or off. In Realtime Write Mode, the metronome is
automatically activated, but you can turn it on and off at any time you wish.
Press (Shift/Cancel) - all 16 step LEDs start to blink - then select (Step 8) =
Metronome. The display shows:
Metronome = off
With the (Data) wheel you can select <on> or <off>. Press (Enter) to confirm.
12.9 Stereo Panning (9)
This function opens the stereo panning page.
Press (Shift/Cancel) - all 16 step LEDs start to blink - then select (Step 9) = Stereo
Panning. The display shows:
Instrument Pan
Press enter
Now press (Enter) and the panning section opens. The pages are similar to an
instrument edit page and can be reached by turning the knobs of the 4x4 knob matrix.
Note that the analog instruments KD, MB, CH, OH, CLAP, RIM, CRASH, RIDE only have
a phase shift panning that has a minor effect and can cause distortions if the level is
too high. This is due to the hardware of the converters and cannot be changed.
We recommend leaving them centered and using the single outputs with an external
mixer to pan them in the stereo mix. For professional recordings, this is the always the
better way as the single outputs give the purest and best quality signal of the analog
instruments possible.
The purely digital instruments X1, X2 and FM use a regular level pan in the stereo mix.
On the last page, some extra parameters for the FM synth like FM Volume and voice
count are placed in the pan section as well.
