How do you set the bar length

[squeakD]

@DJRockstarbaby Press FUNCTION then pad number 7. This takes you to the bar length page.

hey nice videos.. I got a question is there a way to save the bpm/tempo information in a pattern/song? I should look in the manual later but you maybe knows?

[squeakD]

If I remember correctly the tempo on the SB is a global thing. I could be wrong, but I don't recall ever seeing anywhere in the manual where you can save the tempo per pattern. Again, I could be wrong and would have to look at the manual. I do know I saw in the manual at one time that it said the tempo set in pattern mode applies to ALL patterns. I'll have to look deeper into this one :)

cool vid bro,you seem pretty comfortable with that thing,i wrote a beat on mine and it ended halfway through the 5th measure,do you know if theres anyway to get it to go straight back to the 1st,cause the last 2 beats of the 5th measure are just quiet and i need to get rid of those rests there

[BlueRidgeJ79]

Nice beats! Two problems I have occasionally are I cannot figure out to erase a section of a pattern if I screw something up (the manual I have is for the 223), and sometimes if I want to add a sound from another kit to my pattern, the machine will shift the whole pattern to that second kit?

@squeakD i think it save the tempo of songs (and patterns within the songs) but not for pattens in the pattern setting.

[FuturedaveyP]

@squeakD dont for get to press the 'rec' button to set the change once youve select your desired bar length.

Hey how do you get your patterns to save for song mode? I have been trying to figure this out for almost a year now.

[AndreBmusic]

okey thanks for replying! then i just write the tempo in the pattern/songs name. No big deal! but i gona check the manual too!

[tekkentool]

inaudible in the mix anyway

[squeakD]

I think I've picked that up a few times on the Streetboxx too. Doesn't happen too often though.., and not loud enough to cause a problem.

[tekkentool]

yeah, have you ever noticed aliasing? on my 223 sometimes when listening through headphones i can hear a distinct aliasing sound, once i hear it i can't seem to stop hearing it.

[squeakD]

We "technically" have the same drum machine..., mine just has a different patch set and patterns :)

[tekkentool]

damn, same colour as mine

[squeakD]

Nah.., it's partly due to the lighting and the camera :) The lights are actually darker. My camera has 3 rec settings. The best is High Def., but in that format even a short vid clip file is huge. I use the setting in the middle.., keeps the file size down.

[tekkentool]

are the lights on the streetboxx pink? or is it just the camera, i could use some funky pink lights on my rt-223 :D
