Saving A Phrase - Boss RC-20XL Owner's Manual

Saving a phrase

When you have finished recording/overdubbing, or after you have edited the tempo
or other settings of a phrase, you can save it.
All phrases that have not been saved are lost when you turn off the power or select a
different phrase track.
