Gate time

(the length of time from when the note

begins to the time it stops playing)

• When the BR-1600CD’s internal drum sounds are

being played, the Gate Time setting is ignored and
all sounds continue for the same amount of time;
accordingly, the Gate Time setting may be left at “1.”

• When the BR-1600CD is playing drum sounds by

transmitting MIDI data to an external drum machine
connected to the MIDI OUT port, it is important that
the gate time be set to match the specifications
described in the drum machine’s manual.
