17.2.5 Using the Footswitch for Recording Audio
Your controller has an input for a footswitch that you can use this to control the capturing of
loops while keeping your hands free to play your instruments.
In order to use the footswitch for audio loop recording, you must first go to the SAMPLING
page on your controller to pin the recording mode. You can then set the recording parameters
as described in the section: ↑17.2.2, Selecting the Source and the Recording Mode.
When all the recording parameters are set, simply depress the footswitch. Once the sync point
is reached, the recording will start. It will then stop after the pre-determined length or, espe-
cially in the cases where you have selected Free for the LENGTH, press the footswitch again to
stop recording on the next bar. When the recording is done, the recording will be loaded ac-
cording to the setting of the Target parameter.
It may occur that you trigger a new recording by mistake. The footswitch can help in these cas-
