nd
harmonic
SINGLE/DUAL:
toggles between SINGLE note and DUAL notes sampling
BYPASS:
bypass the pedal and erases the sampled note
SAMPLE:
samples the note being played
SINGLE/DUAL notes sampling mode
When toggle switch is set to SINGLE only one note per time will be sampled and played. Sampling a new note erases
the previous one.
When set to DUAL, two notes can be sampled at different times and played back at same time.
Example of DUAL sampling:
-
Play note A1 and push SAMPLE
-
A2 is played back
-
Play note C3 and push SAMPLE
-
A2 + C3 are played back at same time as a bichord
-
Play note D3 and push SAMPLE
-
C3 + D3 are played back at same time as a bichord (A2 is erased)
-
Play note E3 and push SAMPLE
-
D3 + E3 are played back at same time as a bichord (C3 is erased)
-
…and so on…
SAMPLE footswitch LONG PRESS
SAMPLE footswitch can be set to operate in two different modes when it’s held down long (keep pressed):
-
CONTINUOUS SAMPLING, keeps sampling while playing. In this mode the pedal behaves more like a standard
octaver pedal. When SAMPLE is released the last played note while pushing SAMPLE is sampled.
