The BPM engine will now re-calculate the tempo. However, if no
new tempo is detected, any recorded loops can still be played back
at the last detected BPM rate (the MIDI clock output will also
continue at the same rate) - e.g. the cleared BPM value is
memorised for loop playback/MIDI clock continuity purposes.
The default BPM value will only apply if the BPM engine
has not previously registered a tempo.
In the unlikely event that your stops responding to
controls/functions etc you can easily perform a hardware reset to
reinitialize the software.
To perform a hardware reset, gently press the tip of a pen or other
similar blunt pointed object into the small access hole on the rear
panel (adjacent to the Red Sound bar-code logo). Afterwards,
the [BPM ON/OFF] button to ‘wake-up’ the operating system
(NOTE: any recorded loop samples will be lost during a hard reset
operation)

You can manually set a BPM value when there is no beat
information available for the BPM engine to detect or when
[DISENGAGE] mode is selected.
To manually set a BPM value, first ensure the [MODE] switch is set
to the [LOOP] position and the BPM engine is either ‘idle’ (tri-colour
indicator is [RED]) or disengaged (tri-colour indicator is flashing
[BLUE]).
Press and hold down the [RE-SAMPLE] button, then (after a one
second protection period) press the [PULL] button repeatedly to
decrement the BPM value or the [PUSH] button repeatedly to
increment the BPM value (default setting is 120BPM from an idle
condition).
