Then any Record you do will be synchronized to that. If you have downstream devices syncing to midi clock, you can even start them first based on this clock and then record a loop later, or have them start with you when you begin recording. This gives a lot more options for synchronizing, instead of always having devices start after you finish recording a loop. You could probably also come up with midi strings that put it in tempo mode and then send a cc value for the datawheel, to set a specific tempo value. But the preset method is more straightforward I think. >Is there a way to clear it out so the tempo is set by the length of the >loop? Anytime you have a Tempo set, you can escape from it temporarily by pressing Overdub while in reset. You will notice when you have the Tempo set, the Overdub LED will turn orange when you go to reset, indicating it has this special function. When you go back to Tempo mode it remembers your previous tempo. Long-press of Undo turns tempo off completely and resets the tempo for the next time you go into that mode. kim ______________________________________________________________________ Kim Flint | Looper's Delight kflint@loopers-delight.com | http://www.loopers-delight.com
