LOOP SAMPLER – DETAILS FOR THE 1/2 SPEED/REVERSE FOOT SWITCH
•One tap puts you in 1/2 Speed, or returns you to normal speed. Once you’ve turned 1/2 Speed on, it stays
on until you turn it off again. The light will turn on to show 1/2 Speed is on.
From Play: When a loop is playing forward and at normal speed, press this switch once and the loop drops
down one octave and plays at half the tempo. Press this switch a second time to return the loop to normal
speed.
You can “arm” 1/2 Speed before hitting play.
For Recording, you can “arm” 1/2 Speed with a tap on this switch before you start. Hit the
RECORD/OVERDUB switch to start recording your loop at half speed. Then, when you first play back,
remember you’re still in half speed – so your loop sounds just like what you recorded. Once you turn off half
speed (by tapping the 1/2 SPEED / REVERSE switch) the loop will be playing at double speed. Now that’s
easy, isn’t it? Just give it a try and you’ll get the hang of it.
Overdub works just like Record. Play with it; you’ll like it.
•A double-tap activates/deactivates Reverse. The light will flash slowly.
From Play: Double-tapping this switch while the loop is playing reverses playback. Double-tap again to
switch back to forward play. You can “arm” reverse before hitting play.
From Recording: Reverse doesn’t work in Record. Double-tapping the switch will be ignored.
Overdub: Once you’ve got a loop recorded, you can start overdubbing, and then double-tap the 1/2 SPEED
/ REVERSE switch to reverse your recorded loop and dub over it.
You can use both 1/2 Speed and Reverse at the same time. The light will flash quickly.

LOOP SAMPLER – PLAY ONCE & 1/2 SPEED/REVERSE FOOT SWITCHES
PLAY ONCE
This switch allows “one shot” playback (the Play Once and Play/Stop lights come on during one shot playback).
From Stop, press this switch to play your loop one time and stop . From Record, press Play Once to stop
recording and start one shot playback immediately. From Play, this switch will turn on Once mode,
meaning the loop will continue playing to the end of the loop and stop. If Play Once is already turned
on, pressing this switch will re-trigger the start of the loop. (You can “stutter” with this.) From Overdub,
things are the same as from Play: press the switch, and loop playback (and the Overdub) will stop at the
end of the loop.
1/2 SPEED/REVERSE
This is a dual function switch. One tap gets you half speed, and a double-tap will give you reverse. You
can even use them both at the same time. Flip to the next page for all the details.
