SUBDIVISION (F2)
This page lets you adjust settings for the subdivision metronome.
This is similar to the regular metronome but while the regular
metronome sounds every beat, the subdivision metronome
sounds during smaller intervals of each measure.
1.
Press UTILITY to enter the main Utility Menu.
2.
Press MTRO (F1) to access the metronome settings.
3.
Press SUBD (F2) to access the subdivision metronome
settings.
4.
Use CURSOR UP / DOWN to move through the menu items and VALUE UP / DOWN or the VALUE
DIAL to adjust the settings:
•
SubDvsn: The length of each subdivision. The range includes 1/2, 1/4, 1/8, and 1/16 notes –
both regular and triplet. (Example: If the regular metronome is set to a 4/4 time signature and
"SubDvsn" is set to "1/8," you will hear the regular metronome on every 1/4 note as well as the
subdivision metronome on every 1/8 note.)
•
SubDLvl: The volume level of the subdivision metronome sound (00-99).
keeping this volume relatively low so it is not confused with the regular metronome sound.
•
SubDSnd: The sound of the subdivision metronome.

the tempo LED will flash all the time. When set to "PAT ONLY," the tempo LED will only flash
when a Sequence is playing. When set to "OFF," the tempo LED will never be seen.
•
Tap Tempo: Enables or disables the TAP TEMPO button. Disabling it may be useful if you do
not want to make any unintentional changes to a Sequence's tempo.
