Parameter Value
(Bold: default)
You can specify the number of measures for each track. When recording along with rhythm sounds or other tracks, it's
convenient to specify the number of measures before you record, so that looping will occur at the specified measure
length, even if you don't operate the switch when you've finished recording.
* This parameter is available only if LOOP SYNC is "ON. "
Track 1: One measure
Track 2: Four measures

Explanation
Tracks that are set to AUTO will have the same number of measures. The number of measures
is determined by the first-recorded track of the tracks that are set to AUTO.
For example, if all tracks are set to AUTO, the value set as the number of measures for the
second and subsequent tracks will be identical to the number of measures in the first track
that was recorded.
The number of measures will be set automatically, corresponding to the length of the
recording.
The number of measures will be set manually.
If you select a note, you can make the length shorter than a single measure.
Specifies whether the beginning of the track 1–6 phrases are aligned for loop playback (ON),
or whether they loop-play at the length of their respective phrases (OFF).
ON: Track 1
Track 2
OFF: Track 1
Track 2
Playback starting location
If you turn LOOP SYNC on, the beginning of the tracks will always be aligned. This means that
if tracks are already playing back, the playback start location of the other tracks will become
"the current location of the phrase being played. " The following illustration is an example of
how playback will occur with track 1–6 that contain the identical melody but have different
loop sync settings.
ON: Track 1
Track 2
OFF:
Track 1
Track 2
Specifies whether each track plays at its original tempo (the tempo during recording) or at the tempo that is
specified in memory.
OFF The track will play at its own original tempo.

When TEMPO SYNC SW is "ON, " this sets whether to change the pitch according to the tempo, or to instead
make the pitch stay the same.
PITCH The pitch changes according to the tempo.
XFADE

(p. 5) setting.
HALF Plays back at half the speed of the original tempo.
NORMAL
Plays back at the original tempo.
DOUBLE Plays back at twice the speed of the original tempo.
Sets whether to allow the playback sound from a different track as well to be recorded (ON) or
not (OFF) during recording or overdubbing.
