Troubleshooting
Sometimes, things just aren’t working the way you expect them to Here are a few things to keep an
eye on
Looping Tips
When it comes to looping, practice is the key You might notice that your loops have a small gap be-
tween the end of the phrase and when the loop restarts This happens when you mis-time pressing the
PLAY/REC/O-DUB button Pay careful attention to co-ordinating your button press to the down beat,
so that the loop beginning and end is seamless
Experiment with exiting LOOP MODE and picking a different vocal sound for the next O-DUB layer
You can get some great results by simply varying the sounds that are part of the loop
When adding an O-DUB layer, you can record multiple passes of O-DUB parts without starting and
stopping the looper This allows you to add numerous parts, which can all be removed with a single
UNDO action (they can also be brought back by repeating the UNDO action)
Using a Switch3 will give you permanent access to looping without pressing the Up and Down foot-
switches It frees up those switches to be assigned for Key/Scale selection, plus you don’t have to go in
and out of loop mode to change presets It times out automatically, so you can choose a new sound
The Switch3 buttons are mapped as follows:
1 Rec/Play/O-Dub
2 Stop/Clear (Hold)
3 Undo
The benefit of having undo on a separate button is the ability to perfectly time your undo, rather than
waiting a moment for a Hold to be registered
Note: When a Switch3 is plugged in, Key/Scale selection is automatically assigned to UP/DN When the
Switch3 is unplugged, UP/DN remains Key/Scale and will need to be changed in the setup menu if you
wish to assign UP/DN back to Looping
