- Using the Looper function
Erasing recorded tracks
The ERASE button on the control panel is used for erasing the contents of a track or for switching to
Erase Rec mode. The button works differently depending on the looper state.
Erasing while the looper is playing back or stopped
When you press the ERASE button, the LED on the button blinks.
Press a track button in this state to erase the contents of that track.
The buttons of the erased tracks light up dimly in white, and the ERASE button goes dark, returning
to its normal state.
Erasing during recording
When you press the ERASE button while recording, the recording is instantly canceled and the track
contents are erased.
Erasing during overdubbing
When you press the ERASE button while overdubbing, the contents of everything you've recorded as
an overdub thus far are erased, and the track returns to how it was before you started overdubbing.
The unit remains in Overdub mode even after you erase data in this way.
Erase Rec
Similar to punch-in or replacing parts of a track, Erase Rec lets you record new parts to a track while
recording over the existing data.
When you press the REC button while Erase Rec (UTILITY - LOOPER Setup) is "ON", the REC and
ERASE buttons blink, and the unit enters Erase Rec standby mode.
Tip: You can also press both the REC and ERASE buttons at the same time to enter Standby mode.
At this time, when you press the button for a track that's already recorded, Erase Rec starts instead
of Overdub.
The operations you use to start and end recording, as well as the actions afterwards are the same as
Overdub mode. However, while Overdub mode lets you overlay what you play on the existing tracks,
Erase Rec erases over the recorded data as you're recording new data.
This method of replacing what you've recorded is similar to punching in and out on an MTR (multi-
track recorder).
Once you pass through the track with Erase Rec and return to the point where you started recording,
the ERASE button goes dark and the unit switches to Overdub mode.
Looper effects
The looper features a dedicated built-in effects section for the output. You can turn this on or off at
any time by pressing the button on the control panel.
Refer to "LOOPER edit menu" on page 59 for details on the effect settings.
