Noatikl User Guide


View: Piece - Tempo

< back | next >

This view allows you to define the tempo properties for your Noatikl piece.

The tempo parameters are used in these two situations:
- when "cooking" a MIDI file from any Noatikl variant
- when "real-time" playing standalone and not synced

In all other circumstances, the Tempo parameters in this view are ignored! When not cooking a MIDI file, and when using the Noatikl Plug-in or Noatikl standalone in Sync? mode, the tempo is provided by the sequencer, and all of the Tempo parameters are ignored!
