MASTER MENU
• Global Tempo
This function sets the tempo for Beats mode, Synced LFOs and the
Retrigger features. This tempo setting is the same as shown in Beats
mode and any changes you make will be shown in either window. The
global tempo is variable from 1 beats-per-minute (bpm) to 255 bpm.
Turning the tempo down below 1 bpm sets the tempo to “External”
mode. In external mode, the tempo is determined by incoming MIDI
clocks and Beats mode will not start if there is no incoming MIDI
clock to set the tempo.
GLOBAL TEMPO
120 bpm
• Beats Control
This function allows you to control Beats mode using standard MIDI
Note-on messages. The selectable options are: “Mute Key”, “Start Key”,
and “Stop Key”. The Mute Key, while pressed, silences the beat or song
without stopping it and also silences MIDI transmission of beats. Any
MIDI key number can be assigned to the three controls, but they must
be received on MIDI channel 16 to be recognized unless Planet Phatt is
in Omni mode, in which case all channels are accepted. These keys
only work when the beats screen is displayed.
BEATS CONTROL

Control keys can be placed out of the way at the ends of the keyboard or anywhere you prefer.
