217UTILITY MODE / SEQUENCER SETUP
The parametrers provided in this screen determine how the sequencer’s metronome
functions, and whether sequencer operation is synchronized to the SY85’s own inter-
nal clock or an external MIDI device.
1: CLICK CONDITION
[UTILITY] [SEQ SETUP] [MENU] 1:Click Condition [ENTER/YES]
Click
Range: off, on
Controls: [CS3], [-1] [+1], Dial
Enables or disables the sequencer’s metronome click sound.
The “off” setting means that the metronome never sounds. This setting is
useful for recording free-tempo passages. The “on” setting causes the metro-
nome to sound during real-time recording.
The volume of the click metronome sound can be adjusted via the rear-
panel [CLICK VOLUME] control.
Beat
Range: 1/4, 1/6, 1/8, 1/12, 1/16, 1/24, 1/32
Controls: [CS4], [-1] [+1], Dial
Effective only in the pattern mode, this parameter determines how many
metronome beats occur between each accented beat.
Clock
Range: int, MIDI
Controls: [CS5], [-1] [+1], Dial
Determines whether the SY85 sequencer timing is synchronized by its own
internal clock or an external MIDI clock.
“int” (internal) is the normal setting when the SY85 is being used alone. If
you are using the SY85 with an external sequencer, MIDI computer, or other
MIDI device, and you want the SY85 to be synchronized to the external device,
set this function to MIDI. In the latter case, the external device must be con-
nected to the SY85 MIDI IN connector, and must be transmitting an appropri-
ate MIDI clock signal.
