Deleting the Loop and Trying Again
If you don’t like what you hear and want to try again:
► Press the UNDO button when the Loop Recorder is stopped (when the Loop Recorder is
playing the button is hidden).
→ Now the recording has been cleared and you can try again.
For example, you could try again to record a loop from the track on Deck B, this time while
tweaking the FX loaded on the FX Unit 2:
1. Turn channel B’s EQ knobs back to neutral position.
2. Press the Record button on the Loop Recorder and tweak the FX knobs and buttons of
the FX Unit 2.
Since the Loop Recorder records the audio (including any processing by the FX), you can
create brand new loops from your existing tracks!
15.9.3 Overdubbing
You can also dub over the current recorded loop, building additional recorded layers on the
fly. To do this:
► Press the Record button while the Loop Recorder is already playing an existing loop,
perform your tweaks, scratches, or vocals, and press it again to exit overdubbing.
→ The new audio will then be added to the existing loop.
► If you don’t like the overdub, just hit UNDO and it will clear your last overdub and you
can try it again.
► If you hit UNDO once more, it will act as a “redo” and bring back the overdub.
► If you want to completely clear all the contents of the Loop Recorder, just press DEL
while the Loop Recorder is stopped.
15.9.4 Further Uses of the Recorded Loop
One of the great things about the Loop Recorder is that you can use it to record loops that
you can then transfer to the Sample Decks. This is how it works:
► Click on the Loop Length display of the Loop Recorder and drag the Loop from there to
an empty sample slot.
→ Now the loop has been stored in a sample slot, and you can record a new loop into the
Loop Recorder if you like.
→ Moreover, your loop now has access to all sample-related features provided by the Sam
ple Deck.
