Chapter 3 Giving Variation to Pattern
Chapter3
Using with Turntable
(Turntable Emulation)
What is the Turntable Emulation?
The MC-307 has a TURNTABLE EMULATION slider, just
like a record player, for BPM adjustment, and TURNTABLE
HOLD/PUSH buttons that make effects just like holding and
turning the turntable possible.They enable start and tempo
alignment during turntable playback.
Synchronizing the Turntable and
the BPM
Use the slider control to synchronize the MC-307’s
BPM setting with the turntable.
Set-up/operating procedure
1. Begin playback with the turntable.
2. Begin playback with the MC-307.
3. Confirm that both the [PITCH/BPM] buttons above the
slider are lit.
If not lit, press one or both buttons to turn the functions,
lighting one or both buttons.
4. Move the TURNTABLE EMULATION slider.
Moving the slider up reduces the BPM (slows down the
tempo). Moving the slider down increases the BPM
(speeds up the tempo).
At the center point of the slider a “click” (where the slider
catches slightly) can be felt. At this position, the BPM will be
at its original value.
In Step 3, if only the [PITCH] button is pressed and lit, then
only the pitch is changed. If only [BPM] is pressed and lit,
only the BPM changes.
Operation similar to touching a
turntable ([HOLD] and [PUSH] buttons)
Synchronizing the Start with the Turntable Using the BPM
button, synchronize the starting point with the turntable.
