Play Electric – Reference manual (2014-07-16) 15
To exit Loop mode, tap the HIT footswitch.
You may exit Loop mode while a loop is still play-
ing. That means you can choose a new vocal
sound – and then re-enter Loop mode to add a
new overdub to the loop.
Loop Undo/Redo
To undo a loop overdub,
press and hold
the
DOWN footswitch.
To restore the overdub (Redo), press and hold
the DOWN footswitch again. Restoring a loop
overdub this way is only possible if you have not
recorded another overdub after using Undo.
Looping with a Switch-3
If you connect a TC-Helicon Switch-3 (optional)
to the PEDAL connector of your Play Electric,
you can use it to control all Loop features.
The benefit of using a Switch-3 is the addition of
the dedicated Undo button.
When a Switch-3 is connected, Play Electric’s
UP and DOWN footswitches are assigned to Set
Key/Scale.
For more information, see “Switch-3 page (7/8)”.
Using DOWN and UP for
setting key and scale
Activating Loop mode by pressing the DOWN
and UP footswitches simultaneously is the de-
fault mode. There is also an alternative mode
where pressing the DOWN and UP footswitches
simultaneously will allow you to set key/scale.
You can set this mode on System page 5 under
“UP/DN Function”.
When you have activated this alternative mode,
pressing the UP and DOWN footswitches simul-
taneously will allow you to set Key and Scale us-
ing these two footswitches.
If you don’t know which Key and Scale a particu-
lar song is in, try using the last chord of the song
for the Key and Major 2 for the Scale. It’s often
correct, especially in popular music.
For more information, see “TC-Helicon scales
reference chart”. You can also find this chart on
the TC-Helicon website:
support.tc-helicon.com/entries/
21051886-scale-chart-for-TC-helicon-products/
To use your newly selected Key and Scale, sim-
ply press EXIT.
To save the current preset with your chosen Key
and Scale, press STORE twice. Storing presets
is covered in more detail later in this manual.
Tap tempo
To access Tap Tempo, press and hold the UP
and HIT footswitches simultaneously.
Tap tempo screen
Once you see the current tempo displayed on
the LCD screen, tap the HIT button in time with
your music.
When you are finished, stop tapping, and the
screen will “time out” back to the preset screen.
