About the BPM/MIDI SYNC function

BPM/MIDI SYNC can be used for most effects that have an
LFO, such as 009: St.Wah/AutoW(Stereo Wah/Auto Wah),
and for some delay-type effects such as 049: LCR BPM
Delay

. You can apply modulation that is synchronized to the

tempo, or specify the delay time in terms of a note value so
that the effect will synchronize to the tempo of the KARMA
function, or external sequencer during a live performance
even if you change the tempo.

Parameters that allow BPM/MIDI SYNC to be used are
marked by a

symbol at their right in the list of param-

eters for each effect.

Example 1. LFO

“BPM/MIDI Sync” On
“Base (Base Note)“
“Times” 1
In this case, each cycle of the LFO will be as long as one
quarter note.

If you set “BPM” to MIDI, the LFO will synchronize to the
tempo of the KARMA function or sequencer (or to the exter-
nal MIDI clock). If “BPM” is in the range of 40–240, the spec-
ified value will be used.

Example 2. Delay Time

“L Bs (Base Note)”
“Times” 1
“R Bs (Base Note)”
“Times” 3
In this case, the delay time of the left channel will be the
duration of an eighth note, and the delay time of the right
channel will be the duration of a sixteenth note triplet.

When “BPM” is set to MIDI, the effect will synchronize to
the tempo of the KARMA function or sequencer (or to an
external MIDI clock). If “BPM” is in the range of 40–240, the
specified value will be used.
If the tempo, “Bs (Base Note),” and “Times” settings in con-
junction would cause the maximum delay time to be
exceeded, a warning such as “TimeOver? >OVER!” will
appear in the display. Please modify your settings so that
this setting does not appear. (The maximum delay time will
depend on the effect type.)
