Using Tap Tempo
The Tap Tempo function allows you to specify a tempo by tapping.
1. Click the Learn button in the upper left corner of the tempo display to activate the
Learn mode.
The button turns red to indicate that you can tap the tempo.
2. If you want to tap the tempo of some recorded material with unknown tempo,
activate playback.
3. Tap the tempo on the space bar of the computer keyboard or on a connected MIDI
keyboard.
4. When you stop tapping, the program calculates the average tempo of the taps and
displays it in the Tempo field.
Using the Rehearsal Tempo
If you are recording an instrument with Sequel and you cannot keep up with the
project tempo, try activating Rehearsal mode. This reduces the project tempo, making
it easier for you to record even tricky parts with Sequel.
• To activate Rehearsal tempo, click in the top right corner of the tempo field.
Rehearsal tempo is activated.
• To deactivate Rehearsal tempo and use the project tempo again, click the button
again.
The Time Signature (T.SIGN)
This shows the current time signature of the project.
To change the time signature, you have the following possibilities:
• Double-click the Time Signature field and type in a time signature.
• Click in the time signature field, keep the mouse button pressed, and drag up or
down.
Ö
If the tempo track is activated, clicking the Learn button and tapping the tempo
removes the existing tempo curve and sets a single constant tempo according to your
tapping, see
“Adding Tempo Changes” on page 37.
