setting may confuse your other devices and cause them to play out
of time.

BeatBuddy sends out the MIDI Start command when the
main
beat
starts playing after the intro has finished. This is a great way to
start right
on
time.

BeatBuddy always sends out the MIDI Start command when
Unpaused, unless Start setting is disabled or Mute Pause option is selected.

BeatBuddy sends out the MIDI Stop command when
BeatBuddy has been paused.
o
Pause and End

BeatBuddy sends out the MIDI Stop command when
BeatBuddy has been paused and when the outro ends.
o
End Only:
BeatBuddy sends out the MIDI Stop command only when the
outro ends.
o

Notes
o
When enabled, the BeatBuddy sends out the MIDI notes that it is currently
playing. This can trigger sounds in another device such as your computer
or another synthesizer. If disabled, BeatBuddy does not send out any MIDI
notes. Some devices (such as the Pigtronix Infinity looper) get confused
and do not operate properly when they receive MIDI notes.
