Entering and exiting Loop mode

To enter Loop mode, press and hold the Layer
button. The LED of the Layer footswitch will turn
purple, and the screen will display loop tracks
and other information.

The loop screen shows a combination of con-
trols, which relate to the six footswitches, and
track “thumbnails” that show you what you have
recorded.

To exit Loop mode and return to the previously
active layer (Vocal or Guitar), press and hold the
Layer button.

Your first loop

Just to get you started, let’s make a quick loop.

– If you are not already on the Looper layer, go

there now by pressing and holding the Layer
button.

Setting up the metronome

– Let’s turn on the Metronome (MET) so you can

make your loop to a consistent beat.

As you can see, there are six segments in the

display, which correlate to the six footswitch-
es. The lower left segment is labeled “MET”
and represents the HIT footswitch.

– Tap the HIT footswitch.

Metronome settings

The HIT footswitch will begin flashing purple,

indicating that the Metronome is now active.

If you are using headphones, you should hear

a Kick Drum Metronome.

– If you don’t hear a metronome sound over

your headphones:
– Press the Home button.
– Move any of the MIX knobs to access the

Mix page.

– Navigate to the Headphone Mix page using

the Arrow buttons.

– Turn up the Metronome Level.
– Press and hold the Layer button to re-enter

the Looper.
