Phrase Loop Play
What's Phrase Loop?
In this mode, you can record up to 38 seconds of material (recorded in mono) and repeatedly play material as a "phrase loop." As
the loop plays, you can overdub new material if desired.
You can record a phrase loop with effects, or you can add effects after a loop has been recorded. Adding effects after-the-fact lets
you create special effects with recorded performances. It's also a great way to audition tones, as you can adjust effect parameters
in real time while a phrase plays back.
Recorded phrases are deleted when Phrase Loop is switched off or when the power is turned off.

The maximum recording time for monaural
recording is approximately 38 seconds. When the
recording time reaches 38 seconds, playback of the
recorded performance starts automatically.
Recording on top of an existing performance is
called "overdubbing."
If you want to overdub additional material, repeat
steps 2 and 3.
