On/off conditions

The setting you make here is reflected to the
[RHYTHM GUIDE] key (the key is lit when ON, while
it is unlit when OFF). Conversely, when you turn
on or off the rhythm guide using the
[RHYTHM GUIDE] key, the status is reflected to
this screen. See the table on the right for details.

2. Conductor Map: On/off selection of the conductor map

This item enables or disables the conductor map
(see "Conductor map" described later).
The default is "Off". See the table on the right for
details.

3. Signature: Time signature setting

The default is "4/4". You can select from among
1/4 through 5/4 and 1/8 through 8/8.
The setting here is effective from the beginning to
the end of the song when the "Conductor Map"
item is set to "Off" (i.e. the same time signature
all through the song). When the "Conductor Map"
item is set to "On", the setting here is ineffective.
See the table on the right for details.

You can make setting for each item similarly.

items.

To exit the menu mode, press the [STOP] key, or se-
lect "<< Back" and press the [MENU/ENTER] key re-

pressed (see the lower screen).

4)

Rotate the JOG dial to select the desired option,
and press the [MENU/ENTER] key.

The selected option (in the example above,
"On" or "Off") is confirmed and the display

30 and 250 bpm. The setting here is effective from

tempo all through the song).
When the "Conductor Map" item is set to "On",
the setting here is ineffective. See the table on the
