Accent Pattern Display - Displays the accent pattern of the active preset. If no accent pattern is selected
or there are no available accent patterns for the current meter setting, this section will not be visible.
A combination of and icons that add up to the current Beats Per Measure parameter is displayed.
When the metronome is playing, an underline travels through the pattern, left to right, to signify
which section is currently playing. Accent Patterns are not selectable in either Tempo Map playback or
Practice Pattern modes.
Available Accent Patterns are dependant upon the current Beats Per Measure parameter of
the Meter setting. For more about Accent Patterns, see Appendix B - Accent Patterns
Conductor Bars / Updating Display - In normal metronome operation, these five bars will animate a
“rise and fall” that coincides with the beat, much like a conductor’s downbeat motion. If the tempo
becomes too fast to visually convey the beat, the conductor bars will conduct the whole measure as
one revolution. When updating firmware via the USB port, the updating label is displayed while the
bars animate to signify the progress of the update.
Subdivision Display - Displays the subdivision of the active preset. Subdivisions will always display
correctly notated as one whole beat of the current meter or time signature. Subdivisions are not
selectable in either Tempo Map playback or Practice Pattern modes.
Available Subdivisions are dependant upon the current Beat Value parameter of
the Meter setting. For more about Subdivisions, see Appendix A - Subdivisions
Icon / Status Display
MIDI Indicator - When playing back a MIDI Tempo Map, the MIDI icon will appear as well as the
number ( 1 - 9 ) of the tempo map being played. When the BodyBeat Sync is receiving MIDI Clock via
the USB port, only the MIDI icon will display.
Open Registration Icon - Appears when a BodyBeat Sync in Master Mode starts a new group or
reopens an existing group. Members can only join when this icon is displayed on the Master.
Edited Icon - Appears when a preset parameter has been edited but not yet saved.
