When Connecting Two Fs-5U - Boss RC-20XL Owner's Manual

• When you switch to a phrase set to One-Shot Playback, the phrase is played
to the end, and then playback stops.
• If you use Phrase Shift during One-Shot Playback, the phrase is played to the
end, then the unit switches to the next phrase.
The unit may not switch to the next phrase if you carry out Phrase Shift while the
end of the phrase is approaching. Use Phrase Shift while there is still ample time
to carry it out.
After carrying out the switch operation, you cannot change the tempo or switch to
Reverse Playback until the phrases are switched.
5. Press the right pedal to stop playback.
When you start playback again, the phrase selected with the PHRASE SELECT knob
will play.
You can also use Phrase Shift with the PHRASE SELECT knob.
If, while a phrase is playing back, you turn the PHRASE SELECT knob to select
the phrase track that will be played next, the next phrase will begin at the moment
that the currently playing phrase returns to the loop start.
