5.
Start playback on the MIDI sequencer or rhythm machine.
The BR-1600CD will start to record MIDI timing clock
signals.
Note that it will not be possible to perform playback or
recording while these signals are being recorded. In
addition, it will also not be possible to play back rhythm
performances.
Tempos in a range of 25 to 250 BPM can be recorded. All
tempos higher than 250 BPM will be recorded as being
250 BPM; similarly, any tempo lower than 25 BPM will
be recorded as 25 BPM.
Approximately 4,000 eighth notes (i.e., approximately
500 measures in 4/4-time) can be recorded in a sync
track. If this limit is reached, the BR-1600CD will
automatically stop recording.
6.
When playback has reached the point at which you
would like to stop recording, stop playback on the
external MIDI sequencer or rhythm machine.
The recording of MIDI timing clock signals will stop
automatically, and the display will return to the top screen.
This completes the process for creating a sync track.
7.
If you wish to store the sync track that has been created,
save the current song (p. 72).
Note that only one sync track can be recorded per song.
