SELECT OTHER TRACK
This function simply selects the other track as the current track. If the current track is 1 then track 2 is
selected. Otherwise, track 1 is selected as the current track.
MIDI
Clock Out
The MIDI out connector on the back can provide clock to other devices. The LP2 assumes that track 1
is a single measure with 4/4 timing. It then produces MIDI clock pulses at the standard rate of 24
pulses per quarter note.
Clock In
If MIDI clock in is present on the MIDI input, then the Record button will function as a MIDI sync
record button. In this mode, the track will assume 4/4 timing on the MIDI input clock and will
guarantee that the loop length will be an integer multiple of the measure length. On playing of the
loop, synchronization with the MIDI clock will be maintained.
MIDI map
The LP2 responds to certain MIDI note on messages and MIDI CC messages. The mappings below
correspond to LP1 functions. For details on each function, please refer to the LP1 manual. Note that
tracks 3 and 4 are accessible through these commands but those tracks do not show status on the top
panel LEDs. You are welcome to use those tracks, but be aware that currently you cannot see their
current status.
