Creating a phrase loop
Phrases stored in the phrase pool can be selected and lined
up in any desired sequence, and with any number of
repetitions. The result can be written to a track/V-take as a
phrase loop. When being written to the track/V-take, the
phrase loop is stored in the same format as regular audio
data, so that the resulting V-take can be used in the same way
as other V-takes.
About phrase loop FAST input
The FAST (Formula Assisted Song Translator) method uses
simple formulas to specify rhythm pattern playback from
start to end.
The status keys and [SOLO] key in the fader section are
used for FAST input, as described below.
