tap tempo on-the-fly

Post by globethought »

Has anyone figured out a way to set the tempo on the fly via tap without having to use two hands to press the shift and tap buttons at the same time? That is, by way of a tap pedal or master audio tap signal? Tapping with my foot would be a whole lot better than having to interrupt my hands (playing in the middle of a live gig) in order to press those buttons.
Thanks!

P.S. If it's not currently possible... how do I request that Korg make an update to the KingKorg software?

Bump on this post.

I've been trying to figure out how to set up a footswitch for tap tempo, but it does not seem to be a footswitch-assignable (or midi assignable) parameter however much I dig through the global settings. Maybe I'm missing something? Does anyone have any insight on doing so? It seems like this should be an easy thing to do.

Pretty sure it's not possible, which is super dumb.

Yeah its not really conducive to live playing, fortunately, I keep my kk slaved to my computer, not a convenience everyone can afford live though.
