Go to preferences then go to "other" and you will see a drop down menu where you can select how many times you want to tap the tempo button to get the right tempo your looking for. I have mines set to 4 taps.

Yo I understand asking a question if you really can't find the answer, but this is like the fourth thread you've made about simple functions of your machine....is this stuff not covered in the studio manual?

No and it's not in my 4 hour long video tutorial. The manuals sometimes suck also. Thanks for the help chief!

Tap Tempo is used to sync the beats. Tap it at the downbeat. One, Two, Three, Four. Do it again if its a bit off like One, Two, Three, Four. Tap it and get into the rhythm.

For rhythm and soul you on your own.
