Roland MC-09 用户手册

The MC-09 has a single tempo setting that governs the playback. This is called the 

. Although each pattern also has its own tempo, this is separate from the standard tempo. 

When you select a pattern, its tempo will be loaded and will become the standard tempo. The 

standard tempo can be adjusted in a range of   = 40 through   = 240.

Pattern, effect control, and loop control will play back according to the standard tempo. In 
addition, effect parameters such as phaser rate and LFO rate will also synchronize to the standard 
tempo while a pattern, effect control, or loop control is playing.

You can also make pattern, effect control, and loop control play in synchronization with the 
tempo of an external MIDI device, regardless of the standard tempo (p. 64).

You can set the tempo by pressing the [TAP] button at the 
desired timing.

When you press the button three times or more, the tempo 
will be calculated automatically, and will appear in the 
display.

BPM stands for Beats Per Minute, and indicates the 
number of quarter note beats that occur in one minute.
