Adjusting Tempo on a Drum Machine

Video Transcript

"Alright. So, you've made your beat. You've adjusted the sound levels. You're almost ready for it to go. But, there's one more thing you can do. And, that's adjust the tempo of the song. Alright. So, this is our beat that we have this far. Ok. Now, you're going to go. Each drum machine is different, so on this specific drum machine using these buttons you can scroll to select the tempo. Using this knob, you can select the speed of the tempo. So, I'm going to play the beat and slow it down and speed it up to the sound that I like. That's a little too slow, so I'm going to speed it up. A little more upbeat. But, for this specific beat I'm going to leave it somewhere in the middle. Then, you record. Let it play through. And, you've made your first beat. Thank you for using Expert Village."
