Metronome
The metronome is use
ful for users who might need some help, so they don't
"lose the beat".
You can select the tempo from the list. "--" means that the speed adapts to
that of the first recorded loop or to that of the accompaniment (if selected).
Practice speed
Speed is divided in half or quartered if you activate this button. In the list box,
you can select whether you want to play and record with 50% or 25%.
Monitor
If the button is activated, the incoming signal is output immediately.
"Sound FX" enables you to add extra effects to your material. The effects are
applied to all tracks.
Technically, these effects are on the track. Activation or deactivation of these
effects is therefore not recorded.
Options
The following options are only available in "Solo JamSession" mode.
Quantization guarantees that newly recorded loops fit into the existing
arrangement by recording loops whose lengths are exactly multiple times that
of the first recorded loop or that the loops begin or end on the bar or loop
borders.
There are multiple options for quantization:
Quantize Length to next whole loop: The new loop is recorded with the same
length or a whole-numbered multiple (2x, 3x, 4x...) of the original loop length.
The loops always remain synchronous, but mustn't have the same starting
point. This is the preset quantization mode.
Quantize Start + length to next full loop: It's only after the next loop border
that recording starts. The length is quantized like in "Length to next full loop".
The starting points of the loops are all at the same time positions.
Quantize Length to previous loop: The loop end is shortened to the last
exceeded loop border. This is useful should you always only get around to
clicking on the action button (spacebar) after the next loop when recording.
