Rotate Performance knob 4 (SCAN) to scroll through the track. Check if the Beatgrid stays
aligned over the course of the track.
Position-aware Beatgrid Tempo Adjustment
Performance knobs 3 and 4 (BPM) are scaled based on the viewing position of Beatgrid mode
so that adjustments made far away from the Beatmarker don’t result in abrupt changes to the
waveform position. For example, if you are near the Beatmarker at the start of a track and
change the tempo of the Beatgrid, you will see the waveform move under the Beatgrid by a
particular amount. If you then scan later into the track, adjusting the tempo will create a simi-
lar amount of motion on the waveform (rather than a large amount of motion) thus allowing for
precise setting of the Beatgrid tempo over the length of the track.
Beatgrid Zoom Mode
To set the position of the Beatgrid with greater precision you can use the Beatgrid Zoom mode:
1. Press the ON button 1 to zoom in the first beat.
2. Rotate Performance knob 3 and 4 to adjust the Beatgrid.
3. Press the ON button 1 again to exit Beatgrid Zoom mode.
