SIGNATURE
The SIGNATURE buttn
is used to change the time s!gnature.
The OX can be set to play in most any lime signature. There can be between 1 and 99
beats per measure
, and between a half note and 1/192 note can receive one beat.
Press SIGNATURE. The current Metronome value will appear on the display. (see
METRONOME. above).
Pres SIGNATURE once more. Now the current time signature will appear on the dis-
play, and the beats per measure wil flash. You can use the arrows to increase or
decrease the beats per measure or you can enter the desired value with the keypad.
Press SIGNATURE again
, and the beat value will now flash. You can use the arrow
buttons to increase or decrease the beat value to any common increment.
. NOTE: Changing the
time signature of a programmed sequence causes the length
of the
seque
ce
to be redefined in terms of the new time signature. For example if a
sequence of 3 bars of 4/4 (12 quarter notes) is changed to be 3/4
. the length will be
recalculated to become 4 bars of 3/4 (12 quarter notes). Changing the time signature
can also create sequences that are longer than 99 bars.
