How should I approach
sequence recording?
There are two schools of thought for recording
performances.
a.) The “experienced live performer approach”:
You already know the exact “moves” you would
normally make during the performance of a song
and just want to go for it.
b.) The “studio wizard approach”: You want to
“build” the song one part at a time, perhaps us-
ing controls that would be physically impossible
to replicate in real-time.
If you fall under a) above, you would simply
►
fire up the Backing Track player screen,
►
press the RECORD button,
►
perform your song as normal, pressing all but-
tons and
►
press STOP when you are finished.
Now when you press PLAY, you’ll see that your
“moves” have been recorded and any effect or
STEP changes will happen automatically as the
song progresses.
If you fall under b), you may want to take your
time to build the perfect Sequence. When do-
ing so, you may not know what effects to use or
when exactly to make changes. In that case, we
suggest working on “just the vocals” or “just the
guitar” first. Work your way through the song, fo-
cusing on guitar
or
vocal effect changes.
You can still use any of the Record/Overdub
methods described below – but stick to just the
one instrument until it’s just right. Then, make
sure you’re in Overdub recording mode (so the
guitar or vocal changes you have already record-
ed will be preserved), change to the other Layer
(Guitar or Vocals) and begin building up the re-
maining effects.
Fixing Sequence Recording mistakes
If you have made an error when recording your
Sequence, there are three ways to fix it.
Redo it
Simply go back to the beginning of the track and
press RECORD again. Please note that this is a
destructive recording process – so everything
you previously recorded will be overwritten. You
would have to do this as many times as neces-
sary until you get everything right. This is the
most time consuming approach.
Punch in and out
Using the Control Knob, scroll through the Back-
ing Track until you find the location of the error.
Move the play head slightly before the mistake
using the Backing Track playback controls and
press RECORD. This will “punch in” and begin
recording new sequence data at that point. You
can press STOP when you’re finished. Any ex-
isting sequence data that exists after you press
stop will remain in place. You can replace small
or large sections of the sequence using this
method.
Overdubbing
Use Overdub mode. To activate Overdub mode,
press and hold the RECORD button.
