Precise tempo adjustment

Precise tempo adjustment

31 Oct 2005, 12:05
Hi All,
Trying to precisely adjust the tempo in the sequences but its only incrementing in 1 unit. e.g I can set the tempo to 99, 100, 101 ... but can not set the song tempo to 99.12, 100.16 etc. I know we can do that with SamplEdit by holding down the shift+Inc but is there something like this in Sequencing mode?

I have some loops that are not exact and I would like to set the song tempo from the drum loop instead of making drum loop synced to the tempo. To explain this a little better, the drum loop is 99.81bpm. How do I set the song tempo to 99.81Bpm?

I used to use Cubase SL3 before but trying to learn Fantom X-6 sequencer now. I find it much easier and faster in some cases. I was able to set the bar length (tempo) of a sequence in Cubase based on the loop but not sure if this is possible with Fantom's sequencer.

Never mind - I found the answer.

I found previous posts to this as a limitation of fantom. Ouch . ..

It can sync to a master midi clock in decimals (like a computer) but I was trying to stay away from the computer sequencer in the first place. I hope Roland adds this in future updates, its useful for musicians that need it. They are already doing this in SamplEdit, so capability is there but only limited to SamplEdit. Would be nice to see this in sequencer as well.
