Changing the Tempo of the Rhythm
Pattern
Here’s how to change the tempo of the rhythm pattern.
1. Turn the [TEMPO] knob.
MEMO
• You can set the tempo in a range of 5–300. You can use the
[TEMPO] knob to set the tempo in a range of 60–240.
• You can set the tempo by pressing the [TAP] button at the
desired interval (Tap Tempo). Press the button at least three
times at quarter-note intervals of the desired tempo.
• When you press the [TAP] button, the Tempo window appears.
In this state, you can hold down the [SHIFT] button and turn the
dial to adjust the value below the decimal point. If you press the
[6] (Click) button, a click is sounded at the specied tempo. The
click turns on/o each time you press the button.
Saving a Rhythm Group
A rhythm group you’ve edited is temporary; it disappears if you turn
o the power or select a dierent rhythm group.
If you want to keep the rhythm group you’ve edited, save it to the
user group in the FA.
NOTE
When you execute the Save operation, the data previously in the
save-destination is overwritten.
1. In the RHYTHM PATTERN screen, hold down the [SHIFT]
button and press the [7] (Write) button.
2. Move the cursor to the save-destination, and use the dial
or the [DEC] [INC] buttons to select the save-destination.
3. Press the [2] (Rename) button and assign a name to the
rhythm group (p. 45).
4. Press the [7] (Write) button.
A conrmation message appears.
If you decide to cancel, press the [7] (Cancel) button.
5. Press the [6] (OK) button.
The rhythm group is saved.

Never turn o the power while data is being saved.
