Sequence Clock
The Tempo and Meter screen are not accessible when Tempo Track is selected.
O The Arpeggiator and Sequencer use the SAME CLOCK.
Change the Arpeggiator clock to adjust the tempo of Flash sequences …
…or Copy the Flash sequence to RAM, then adjust the tempo.
Clock Source. Determines if the sequencer clock is controlled by the internal or and external (MIDI) clock.
Tempo Control. Allows the tempo of a sequence to be controlled in one of three ways:
a.By the Tempo Track stored in the sequence. An initial tempo value is stored when you create a new sequence. Sequences imported from an external sequencer may have tempo changes within the song.
b.By the adjustable Screen Value tempo value shown in this display.
c.By an External Clock (MIDI).
Tempo. Sets the tempo (speed) of the sequence and is adjustable from 20 beats per minute (bpm) to 240 bpm.
Meter. Sets the time signature of the song. The Meter setting is used by the metronome function to determine measures and beats.
MIDI Clock Out. Turns MIDI Clock Out on or off. Turn this feature on if you want to control an external MIDI device with the sequencer clock.
v To Set the Clock:
1.From the main sequencer screen, press the Edit function key (F3).
2.Press the Setup function key (F3). A row of function keys appears.
3.Press the Clock function key (F2).
4.Select the Clock Source as internal or external clock.
5.Set the Tempo Control to Tempo Track, Screen Value or External Clock.
6.Set the desired Tempo (if Screen Value is selected)
7.Set the desired Meter (if Screen Value is selected). Any time signature can be programmed.
8.Turn MIDI Clock Out On or Off.
9.Press Exit to lock in the Clock settings and return to the Sequence Edit screen.

This screen allows you to quantize and add swing to a sequence as it is recorded. This is particularly useful when recording drum parts. When you know you want a track to be quantized this is the fastest and easiest way to do it.
