wide variety of rhythm
patterns, including a
metronome. For details refer to
“Rhythm Pattern List” (p. 172).
The tempo you specify here is
the tempo for the entire
system. The sequence and
MIDI OUT will use this same
tempo.
In order to use the tempo
map, you must create a
tempo map and also change
the way in which the rhythm
guide is sounded. For details
refer to the section below,

If you specify that a tempo
map is to be used, the tempo of
the entire system will also

also use the tempo of the
tempo map
