Connect your BodyBeat Sync to a computer using the provided mini USB cable. After the

computer recognizes and installs the device automatically, open the BodyBeat Sync USB software. ( Select

USB Audio Device as both the MIDI In and MIDI Out Devices in Windows XP Only ) For each of the 9

memory slots, you may browse to the location in which you saved a MIDI tempo map and select the .MID

file.

Once you have finished selecting MIDI tempo maps, press the button labeled “Sync” to transfer MIDI

tempo map data to your BBS-1. You may archive and recall an entire bank ( all 9 slots ) of MIDI tempo

maps into one “backup” file using the “Load File” and “Save File” buttons. Pressing “Clear All” will remove

all MIDI tempo map files from all 9 locations.

Count In: Set a number of bars to count in

for each tempo map by using the up and down

arrows or simply typing in the number. The

BodyBeat Sync will count the specified num-

ber of bars in the same meter and tempo of the

current bar when play is pressed. The count

in bars will be shown as negative numbers.

You may set count in from 0-8 bars ( 0 for no

count in ).

Loop: Checking this box will continuously

loop your MIDI tempo map until it is manu-

ally stopped. This makes it easy to rehearse

short multi-bar patterns that contain meter

and/or tempo changes.
