Using the looper
With the looper built into your Alter Ego Vintage
Echo V2 Delay, you can record and play back
grooves and lines for playing along. You can
even overdub your recording an unlimited num-
ber of times.
The first round of recording always sets the
length of the loop. The duration of a loop can
be up to 40 seconds in mono and 20 seconds
in stereo, regardless of how many overdubs you
make.
If an overdub exceeds the length of the loop,
a third round of recording begins. This gives a
very natural, logic and musical feel when record-
ing loops.
The DELAY and knobs are inactive in Loop
mode.
Recording and playing loops
– Set the Delay type selector to LP.
– Make sure the pedal is in bypass mode (i.e.,
the LED should be off). Feel the groove and
prepare for recording. Then tap the pedal’s
footswitch to start your recording and play.
The pedal’s LED flashes red.
– To stop recording, press the footswitch again.
The pedal immediately switches to playback
mode and starts playing the loop. In playback
mode, the LED is green.
– To overdub your recording, press the switch
once more. The LED now blinks.
– To delete all recordings, double-tap the foot-
switch.
