Change the bpm

Another sure-fire way to stir things up is to play with the bpm. Turn up the bpm and turn up the
heat!

Press BPM/TAP once and turn the scratch pad. For you techies, the bpm range is 32.0 - 280.0. try
starting the Pattern at a slower-than-normal bpm, then gradually bring the bpm up in speed to get
the groove really happening!

Be careful! If the Pattern is stopped and you turn the scratch pad past 280.0, “Sync” appears in

the display and the DJX-IIB goes into the Sync Mode (see page 66). To get out of this mode, simply
turn the scratch pad clockwise, until bpm values appear in the display again.

Reset to the default bpm

Want to get back to the original pre-programmed default bpm? Simply press and hold down BPM/
TAP — and the bpm of the currently selected Pattern is instantly reset to its original speed.
