Chapter 7
Changing the Beat in the Middle

The Menu screen appears.

3.
Use < >< > in the screen or the [ (Bwd)]
and [ (Fwd)] buttons to move to the measure
whose beat you want to change.
The measure number appears in the top-right area of the
screen.
Touch < > to move to the beginning of the song.
Touch < > to move to the end of the song.
4. Touch in each to set the beat.
5. Touch <Execute>.
The beat change starts with the measure you selected.
Repeat Steps 3–5 to make beat settings in other measures
as needed.
Recording the Performance
6.
Press the [Exit] button twice.
The screen displayed before you pressed the [Menu]
button appears.
7.
Press the [ (Reset)] button to return the measure
number to “1.”
8. Start a recording.
Record the performance using the procedures described
in “Chapter 5 Recording and Saving the Performance”
(p. 90). Specify the measure, then change the beat.
Changing the Tempo of
Recorded Songs
You can change the basic tempo of a composition. The basic
tempo was initially set when the song was recorded.
1. Press the Tempo [-] and [+] buttons to choose a tempo.
2. Hold down the [ (Rec)] button and press the
[ (Reset)] button.
The song’s basic tempo changes.
The change in basic tempo is discarded when you turn
off the power or choose a different song. Save important
song data to external memory or to user memory (p.
102).
* If the song you’re working on has tempo changes, press the
[ (Reset)] button to go back to the beginning of the song
before you carry out this operation.
Changing the Tempo Within
the Song
You can add tempo changes to a recorded composition.
The KR stores song tempo information and performance data
separately. Therefore, when making changes to the tempo in
a song, you must record the changes in the tempo
information independently of the performance data.
This recording of the tempo is called “Tempo Recording.”
■ Adjusting the Tempo While
Listening to a Song
You can add ritardando and other such gradual tempo
changes.
Setting the Rec Mode to “Tempo”
1. Press the [Menu] button.
The Menu screen appears.
2.
Touch <Rec Mode>.
A screen like the one shown below appears.
