Hint:
When using the left(mono) input ONLY, the input impedance is low-
ered. If you hear a duller, weaker sound coming from your instrument
when using the left (mono) input only, we recommend using a buffer in
front of the looper. If you run mono in/mono out, we recommend using the
right input/ouput jacks.
Loop level:
The single knob on the Image looper controls the level of all the re-
corded audio. While the dry, unaffected signal passes through the
looper at unity gain, the recorded audio can be turned down from
unity (level at maximum) to near silent (level at minimum). Keep the
knob at maximum if you want the recorded audio to be played back at
the same level as your dry, unaffected signal.
(When teaching or doing clinics, it´s useful to have a volume knob right
on the pedal, so you can create a little space for explaining ideas to the
audience/students while the base loop plays).
The basic main routine of the Image looper is record, playback, record,
playback, etc. The right led will light up for “recording” and blink for
“playback”. If all you do is press REC/PLAY, all you will see is that right
led blinking or lighting up – record, playback, record, playback, etc.
This routine is the backbone of the looper – the endless stack of loops/
recordings that get mixed together to create the audio being played
back.
If you want to “step out” of that routine, the looper will indicate this
by keeping the same blinking/lighting led indication, but in a slightly
different way. So you always have a clear view of where you are in the
main routine but also what you did to “step out” of it and how to go
back to it.
