While the sequencer is running, if you hold the S
HIFT button when you hit the S TOP
button, the sequence will continue running until finished (according to the length of
Sequence 1), and will stop after playing step 1.
Also, If you hold the S
HIFT button while changing the program or bank and the
sequencer is running, when the S
HIFT
button is released the sequence will complete
(according to the length of Sequence 1) before synchronously changing to the new
program and it’s sequence.
A simple “tap tempo” feature is available. With the sequencer off, hold the R
ESET
button, and then hold the S TART /S TOP button for a count of four; then lift up the
S TART /S TOP button in time. The sequencer will start with the new tempo. Note – the
actual speed will depend on the Clock Divide setting. The count will match if Clock
Divide is set to 4n. If set to 8n, it will play twice as fast as your “tap”, and so forth.
Sequences normally start when you hit the S
TART /S TOP button, but some are meant
to be played as gated sequences from a keyboard. On these programs, the
S
TART /S TOP LED will light up automatically. For more details, check the Trigger Select
parameter on page 33.
