MODES & FUNCTIONS
■ DESIGNATING THE METER - If you want to create a pattern from scratch
with a specific time signature, you must first designate the meter for an
empty User pattern while still in Pattern Record Standby Mode—i.e., before
initiating the Step or Realtime recording operation. Hold [MODE] and press
[PAGE+]. The default meter setting will be flashing. To designate a different
meter, press [-1] and [+1]. To return to Record Standby Mode, hold [MODE]
and press [PAGE-].
ASSIGNING THE TIME SIGNATURE
You cannot change the time signature for an existing pattern. You can only
assign a time signature to an empty User pattern. You can designate both
time signature and quantization factors according to the following table:
