The Sync Menu
The Sync Menu allows the X-Gator, Arpeggiator, LFOs and Effects to all be synchronised to MIDI clock. This
can be an external MIDI clock (from a sequencer for example) or the internal MIDI clock of the Xio, the
speed of which is determined by the Arp Tempo knob. The Xio default settings mean that the keyboard will
automatically lock to incoming MIDI clock. To change this setting, go to the Synth Global Menu (see the next
section for details).
To access the Sync Menu, press the Menus/Audio button (so that the lower LED lights) followed by the
button above ‘sync’. Once in the Sync Menu, use the page up/down buttons next to the LCD screen to cycle
through the following pages, using the data encoder to change the settings for each page:
SYNC Xgate Tempo – sets a tempo for the X-Gator (relative to the MIDI clock) to fractions of 1 bar,
beginning at a 64th. On this page, T stands for Triplet and D for Dotted, allowing two more syncopated
rhythmic options
SYNC Arp Tempo – sets a tempo for the Arpeggiator (relative to the MIDI clock) to fractions of 1 bar,
beginning at a 32nd. On this page, T stands for Triplet and D for Dotted, allowing two more syncopated
rhythmic options
SYNC Lfo1 Delay – sets a tempo for LFO1 Delay (relative to the MIDI clock) to fractions or multiples
of 1 bar, beginning at a 32nd. On this page, T stands for Triplet and D for Dotted, allowing two more
syncopated rhythmic options
SYNC Lfo1 Speed – sets a tempo for LFO1 Speed (relative to the MIDI clock) to fractions or multiples of 1
bar, beginning at a 32nd. On this page, T stands for Triplet and D for Dotted, allowing two more syncopated
rhythmic options
SYNC Lfo2 Delay – sets a tempo for LFO2 Delay (relative to the MIDI clock) to fractions or multiples of
1 bar, beginning at a 32nd. On this page, T stands for Triplet and D for Dotted, allowing two more
syncopated rhythmic options
SYNC Lfo2 Speed – sets a tempo for LFO2 Speed (relative to the MIDI clock) to fractions or multiples of 1
bar, beginning at a 32nd. On this page, T stands for Triplet and D for Dotted, allowing two more syncopated
rhythmic options

of 1 bar, beginning at a 32nd. On this page, T stands for Triplet and D for Dotted, allowing two more
syncopated rhythmic options
SYNC Chor Rate – sets a tempo for the Chorus effect (relative to the MIDI clock) to fractions or multiples
of 1 bar, beginning at a 32nd. On this page, T stands for Triplet and D for Dotted, allowing two more
syncopated rhythmic options
