*If your mixer has a send/return feature, grab/play a sample and send it to an external effects device for extra
creativity. This can be easily achieved using the RED Sound INFADER and XS-FX.

*Because audio input/loop sync can drift as time progresses due to factors such as fluctuating deck drive speed,
slipmat and the quality of the acetate/vinyl record (the master track) itself, you may wish to PFL the individual
sample (or all recorded [LOOP] pads) and realign using the [EDIT] jog dial. SoundBITE will have time stretched the
samples for you to play at the same speed as the master output but you will need to beat mix the kick/snare/hi hats
as you would on a real turntable.

*On shorter loop lengths, you can shift the sample to play on the off beat relative to where it is on the original track
by rotating the [EDIT] jog dial in either direction 16 steps ( i.e. from beat 1/measure 1 to beat 1/measure 16)

* Specification and /or appearance subject to change without prior notice due to product improvement.
