When "OFF" is selected at "Output"
The metronome function is disabled, and no items other than Output are

Working with MIDI
The DP-01 is equipped with a MIDI OUT jack. This can be used to
drive a sequencer, drum machine, etc., either synchronized to a time
base, or a MIDI clock (see below for an explanation of how this
works). MIDI OUT is also used to drive a MIDI instrument as a met-
ronome (see “Metronome” on page 37).
A MIDI instrument can be connected to the
A
and
B
inputs, or mixed with
the recorded tracks from the analog outputs if it is fed into the
STEREO MIX
inputs.
MIDI Clock, etc.
You must set a
tempo and time sig-
nature on the DP-01 (“Tempo set-
ting” on page 36) to use this
feature.
The MIDI song control messages put out by the DP-01 from the
MIDI OUT port include tempo (MIDI Clock), bar and beat information
(Song Position Pointer), and Start/Stop/Continue messages. This
way of working is particularly suitable for synchronizing with bar/
beat-based MIDI devices such as drum machines and rhythm units.
