[. . . ] Operating environment temperature and humidity: +5°C ­ +35°C (+41°F ­ +95°F); less than 85%RH (cooling vents not blocked) Do not install in the following locations ÷ Location exposed to direct sunlight or strong artificial light ÷ VENTILATION: When installing this unit, make sure to leave Space around the unit for ventilation to improve heat radiation (at least 5 cm at rear, and 3 cm at each side). Ventilation and to ensure reliable operation of the product and to protect it from overheating, to prevent fire hazard, the openings should never be blocked and covered with items, such as newspapers, table-cloths, curtains, etc. Also do not put the apparatus on the thick carpet, bed, sofa, or fabric having a thick pile. Do not pull out the plug by tugging the cord and never touch the power cord when your hands are wet as this could cause a short circuit or electric shock. [. . . ] Display will flash while BPM is being measured or cannot be measured. If something other than AUTO BPM and SEND/RETURN has been selected, the effect value set with effect parameter 1 (*) will be displayed. It will light if the beat is 1/2 or 4/1. If there is a disparity between the number of beats, the closest number will be displayed blinking. Pressing the (2) effect beat selector switch when there is less than 1 beat will change the beat to 1/2, clearing the display entirely. Pressing the (3) effect beat selector switch for over 16 beats will change the number of beats to 32, clearing the display entirely. If there is a disparity between the number of beats, the closet number will be displayed blinking. Effect Beat Selector Switch: The value for effect/sampler parameter 1 (*) will change in keeping with the BPM for source selected with the effect/ sampler channel selector switch (&). If DELAY or ECHO has been selected, the number of beats for parameter 1 cannot be set in excess of 3500ms. If SAMPLER has been selected, the number of beats for parameter 1 cannot be set in excess of 8000ms. This switch will not function if AUTO BPM or SEND/ RETURN has been selected. Used to select different effects (see page 18). When AUTO BPM has been selected, it will function as a tap switch, enabling it to be used as a beat counter through manual input. ) When using the tap switch to measure BPM, both LEDs for indicating the BPM measurement range will turn off and manual mode will go into effect (see page 20). With the built-in digital signal processor (DSP), sound effects can be enjoyed and BPM measured. It not only counts the beat of bass sounds but also calculates (using a computer) the music's original BPM, which DJs require, and displays it digitally. Thus, BPM can now be checked not only aurally, as was conventional, but also visually, enabling quicker, simpler mixing of music with different tempos. * Depending on the music, it might not be possible to measure BPM with the auto BPM counter. In this case, use manual mode to make settings (see page 20). 7 When BPM cannot be measured in auto BPM mode: If auto BPM measurement is not possible, use the tap switch for manual input. When the tap switch is pressed in time to the music's beat, the light in both BPM measurement range displays will turn off and manual mode will go into effect. The BPM value input with the tap switch will be displayed on the effector/BPM display's lower counter, and the display on the upper counter will turn off.
