2. Move the cursor to ClockSrc (clock source), and use the

[VALUE]

knob to select either INT or

MIDI.
Clock Src (clock source) specifies whether the tempo clock of the VariOS will use its own internal
clock (INT) or an external clock (MIDI).
If you are using the VariOS by itself, select INT.
If you are using the VariOS in synchronization with a sequencer or other device, select MIDI. For
details, refer to

“Controlling the VariOS from your MIDI sequencer”

(p. 126).

When you are using V-Producer, V-Producer will automatically set the clock source to
“MIDI.” This will cause the VariOS to synchronize to the tempo of V-Producer.

3. Move the cursor to Tempo (master tempo), and turn the

[VALUE]

knob to adjust the tempo in

steps of 0.1. If you turn

[VALUE]

knob while pressing it, the tempo will change in steps of 1.

Master Tempo specifies the master tempo of the VariOS.
If the Clock Src parameter is set to MIDI, the master tempo will be displayed as “—.-.”

Available Settings:

20.0–250.0
