Tempo – Rhythmic Subdivisions?

[ctc]

When tempo is toggled on [push the encoder button] the delay time is expressed in rhythmic fractions of the tempo. I have written all of the available subdivisions below in chronological order from no delay to whole. Can anyone explain to me what the designations "t" and "?" mean?

t = triplet (2/3 times non-triplet value)

° = dotted (1.5 times non-dotted value)

Thx. Is there some reference to this nomenclature in the manual or knowledgebase?

Not that I could find. The TF UM says "common note values" and a KB search (for "dotted" or "triplet" turns up two H3000 articles.

It probably wouldn't hurt to add something to the UM about this nomenclature, although I have seen other companies use similar notation. I'm wondering if there's a UM revision in the works, now that the production release of V3 is out…
