Tempo changes

Post by pinchas »

Just bought the PA 50 . Very happy with it, but does any one know how to solve the following problem.
If you change from one style to another, it automatically changes to a preset tempo. How do you cancel this preset tempo thereby changing from one beat to anothe with the same tempo
Much appreciate anycomments

Yeah, :lol: silly me. I even saw the button as soon as I posted the question. But I do have another question that you maybe can answer.
I want to perform hands free while I play another instrument and sing. So the idea was to prerecord a medley of songs and play them back.
I tried out a jukebox file but unfortunately it leaves a 1 second gap between each song. I want the songs to come one after the after no silence. This is very important
What do you think is the best way to make it happen,
Should I just record all the songs one after the other as a "song" and then play that song back, or is there another way?
Again much appreciated

By the way, do you have a delay when changing styles in the Pa50?

In mine, if I change a style for another without stopping playing, I always have a fraction of second of interruption in between the styles...

even when I change between STS while playing the upper sections I have a fraction of time interrupted. I mean, is not instantaneous. Do you have the same problem?

re delay

Post by pinchas »

no, i don't seem to get this. I have changed styles and it is instant.
I still am stumped with this medley problem. Any ideas?
I want to make a medley of between 6-7 short songs and save them so I can play hands free while I play another instrument.
Juke box makes a short delay between songs.
Now I just tried to record it all at once as one song and the song stopped at bar 319!! Wasn 't enough memory or something.
Help!!! :x

no interruption between styles here when changing them. the next style will come-up only at the end of the measure though.

about the medley, the best way to do it is to give a full use to the dual sequencer thing. you put your midi files-songs on a disk, load one song into sequencer 1 and while it plays you can easily load the next song into sequencer 2. while this one plays, you can load another in seuencer 1 and so on so forth.

if you want to have everything played one after another, without you touching the buttons at all, thre jukebox function will introduce a small brake between songs. it's just the way it is, as a different set of instruction are contained and must be interpreted by the instrument.
