B Automatic Looping; Auto-Punch - Alesis BRC Reference Manual

6. Press the LOOP button to toggle between Loop Start and End point
displays.
7. If the desired loop point does not correspond to a stored locate
point, the locate point's tape address may be edited. Use the
Cursor buttons to place the cursor under the desired field and use
the Numeric Keypad, UP/DOWN buttons, or the COPY TAPE
LOCATION button to enter the new values.
Note: To use the COPY TAPE LOCATION button, it must be set to
Normal mode in the MIDI/UTIL section (see section 5.3F).
Important: The locate number is the only information stored for a
loop point, not the locate point's address. Therefore, if the locate
point's address is changed, the loop point will change accordingly.
The loop's end point location must be after the start point location. If
the end point occurs before the start point, then LOOP is disabled
(LED off). If you try to enable this function, the display will read the
following for one second, or for as long as the LOOP button is held:
Start pt must be
before end point

4.2B Automatic Looping

By activating both the Loop and Auto-Play functions, you create a
continuous loop. This is useful when using the Auto-Punch function
to record multiple takes. To engage automatic looping, press the
LOOP button; the AUTO-PLAY button will turn on automatically.
These functions may be combined with other functions, such as
Rehearse, Pre/Post-Roll and Crossfade Record, to promote more
advanced recording and editing functions.

4.3 AUTO-PUNCH

The AUTO-PUNCH button is used to enter and exit Auto-Punch
mode. When pressed, its LED will light to indicate that you are now
in Auto-Punch mode.
When in Auto-Punch mode, punching-in and punching-out is
automatically handled when recording, using the Auto-Punch points
(see below). When the button is pressed again, the LED will turn off
to indicate that you are no longer in Auto-Punch mode (i.e. all
punch-ins and outs must be done manually).
