Changing the Tempo You can change the tempo of the song - either before song playback or as the song is playing - from the CONTROL PANEL page. To change the tempo: Use the Data Control buttons corresponding to TEMPO +/- in the display. Each press of the corresponding button slows down or speeds up the tempo by a small amount. Changing the tempo does not change the pitch of the music. DATA CONTROL Tempo is expressed as a percentage, 100% being the normal tempo. Values less than 100 indicate a slower tempo; values greater than 100 indicate a faster tempo. You can quickly restore the normal tempo by pressing the Menu button corresponding to "Norm. Tempo" in the display. ("Norm. Tempo" is also available in the REPEAT PLAY page.) • The TEMPO controls on the panel are related only to Style playback, and have no effect on M.D.R. operations. • Tempo changes remain in effect even through changes in song number. If you have changed the tempo in one song, you should perform the step shown at the left to restore the original tempo before playing another song. Turning the power switch off and on again also restores the original tempo. • Tempo changes cannot be made when playing XG/GM or DOC disks. 109

Changing the Tempo
You can change the tempo of the song — either before song playback or as the song is playing
— from the CONTROL PANEL page.
To change the tempo:
Use the Data Control buttons corresponding to TEMPO +/- in the display.
Each press of the corresponding button slows down or speeds up the tempo by a small amount.
Changing the tempo does not change the pitch of the music.
Tempo is expressed as a percentage, 100% being the normal
tempo.
Values less than 100 indicate a slower tempo; values
greater than 100 indicate a faster tempo.
You can quickly restore
the normal tempo by pressing the Menu button corresponding to
“Norm. Tempo” in the display.
(“Norm. Tempo” is also available
in the REPEAT PLAY page.)
