Loop Recording (Pattern)
[PATTERN] [REC] (Record)
Pattern repeats the rhythm pattern of several measures (1 to
256 measures) in a "loop," and its recording is also done using
loops. This method is used when recording a Pattern Phrase
using the Overdub method (above). As shown in the example
below, notes that you record will play back from the next
repetition (loop), letting you record while hearing previously
recorded material.
When recording a rhythm of Bass Drum, Snare Drum,
Hi-Hat cymbal in order:
Loop 1st round
Bass Drum
Loop 2nd round
Snare Drum
Bass Drum
Loop 3rd round
Hi-Hat
Snare Drum

Loop Recording can only be used with Realtime recording.
Punch In/Out (Song)
You can use this method when you want to re-record only over
a specific area of the track. You'll need to set the start and end
points before re-recording.
In the eight-measure example below, the third measures
through the fifth measure are re-recorded.
