Notes

• The time setting is only possible at the beginning of each

bar.

• You can assign up to 50 tempo maps to each song. The

tempo information can be stored on the disc, but since
there is a limited amount of memory on each disc it may
not be possible to store 50 tempo maps for each song if
there are several songs on a disc. In this case “Tempo Full”
will appear in the display when you select the tempo map
number.

• Due to the nature of the MD system, MIDI clock

information cannot be output and tempo information
cannot be stored when using standard music MD discs.

Use the following operations to delete tempo maps
which are no longer necessary. The tempo map
numbers located after the tempo map which was
deleted are brought forward automatically.
