Synchronizing the ES-1mk
II
with external MIDI devices
(MIDI Clock)
CLOCK int, Ext
The Global mode Clock setting allows the tempo of the ES-1mk
II
to be synchronized with the tempo of an external MIDI device
that is able to send or receive MIDI Clock messages.
For details on synchronization settings of your external MIDI de-
vice, refer to the owner's manual for your device.
Even if you set Clock to Ext, the ES-1mk
II
will operate with its
own internal clock if no MIDI Clock messages are being re-
ceived at its MIDI IN connector.
Synchronizing the ES-1mk
II
to a
master external MIDI device (Ext)
1. Use a MIDI cable to connect the MIDI IN connector of the ES-
1mk
II
to the MIDI OUT connector of the external MIDI device
(sequencer or synthesizer etc.).
2. Use the cursor keys to make the parameter select LEDs indicate
CLOCK.
3. Rotate the dial to select "E t" (external clock).
4. Make settings on the external MIDI device (master) so that it
will transmit MIDI Clock messages.
5. Return to Pattern mode or Song mode.
6. When you start the sequencer of the external MIDI device, the
ES-1mk
II
will simultaneously begin playback.
7. If MIDI Clock data is being received at the MIDI IN connector,
you can make the ES-1mk
II
playback in synchronization with
the external MIDI device by pressing the ES-1mk
II
's Play/Pause
key.
If the MIDI Clock parameter is set to "E t" and the ES-1mk
II
is synchronized to the external MIDI clock, it will synchro-
nize to the tempo of the external sequencer, and it will not
be possible to change the tempo on the ES-1mk
II
.
If a MIDI Start message is received while the ES-1mk
II
is
already playing in synchronization with MIDI Clock, the ES-
1mk
II
will begin playback from the beginning of the currently
playing pattern (or in the case of a song, from the beginning
of the pattern that was playing when the Start message was
received).
7. Global mode
In Global mode you can set parameters such as MIDI or Protect.
Press the Global mode key to enter Global mode.
To execute Global mode, press the previous mode key.
The settings you make in Global mode will be cancelled if you
turn off the power without Writing. If you wish to save the set-
tings you make, you must perform the Write operation (+p.56
"Saving the settings you modify in Global mode").
Metronome settings
METRONOME oFF, r-0, r-1, r-2, on
Specify how the metronome will function. If you will be using
realtime recording to create a pattern from scratch, it is conve-
nient to use the metronome. The metronome will sound at quar-
ter-note timing.
oFF: The metronome will not sound.
r-0: The metronome will sound only during recording (when
the Rec and Play/Cancel keys are lit).
r-1: When recording, a one-measure count will be sounded
before recording begins. The metronome will sound only
during recording.
r-2: When recording, a two-measure count will be sounded
before recording begins. The metronome will sound only
during recording.
on: The metronome will sound during playback and record-
ing. There will be no count before recording begins.
1. Use the cursor keys to make the parameter select LEDs indicate
METRONOME.
2. Rotate the dial to make the metronome setting.
3. Press the Pattern or Song key to return to the previous mode.
The metronome setting cannot be written. When you turn on
the power, it will always be "oFF."
