Turn the dial to select one of the following
methods.
• ADJUST OFF
When you select this setting, the selected phrase is played
continuously, independent of the rhythm song bar lines and
tempo. (This is the default setting.)
• ADJUST BAR
When you select this setting, phrase playback start is aligned
to the measure start of the rhythm song. If one measure of
the phrase (phrase playback range divided by number of
measures specified by MEAS X parameter) is longer than
one measure of the rhythm song, the phrase is switched
when the number of measures specified by the MEAS X
(
→ P.61) parameter has played, without waiting for the end
of the phrase. If one measure of the phrase is shorter than
one measure of the rhythm song, there will be a blank until
the measure where playback switches to the next phrase.
• ADJUST BAR & LEN
When you select this setting, the phrase length is adjusted so
that the measures of the rhythm song and the phrase are
matched. (Pitch will not change.)

• When selecting ADJUST BAR or ADJUST BAR & LEN,
verify that the MEAS X parameter for each phrase is set to
a suitable number of measures. If the setting is
inappropriate, the rhythm song and phrase will not
synchronize properly.

the result will not be as intended. In this case, the
indication “Out of range” appears during processing.
