can you change the tempo a bank is saved at?
it seems to be defaulted to 120, and I can't see it in the manual.

I guess if so, it's a feature so you can always load a pattern and have it pick up the tempo it's running at?

also, there are some tempos you just can't choose right?
Like I don't seem to be able to have 140 for example, only 139 or 142....

thanks...

When you save a pattern, it saves it with the tempo you're using.
When you load a pattern you have different choices:
B + right trigger + up will load the pattern with the saved tempo
B + up will load the pattern without loading the saved tempo

And yes indeed, some tempo values are not possible.

If you're interested (I've never used this function), you can set what is the "master channel" for tempo with the right trigger in the song editor. The manual says that "When a channel is set for tempo, the saved tempo values are applied during song playback."

Hope you'll have fun with nanoloop 2!

brilliant thank you for the help - I think I just had a misunderstanding of how that worked, because it makes total sense now.
There's no way to load all patterns from a row "with tempo" I guess?(maybe that doesn't make sense in case they are saved with a different tempo each?)

thanks - It's loads of fun already!

I don't remember any way to do this. I'll try it this evening and tell you if I find a way.

Yeah the tempo saved to the pattern bank loop will be stored as a tempo change in the song arranger.
