Editing a Loop | American Audio Versadeck guide

BASIC OPERATIONS (CONT.)

REPLAY LOOP - The RELOOP (22) function allows you to return to your stored loop at any time. The IN BUTTON (22) and OUT BUTTON (22) LEDs will indicate a loop is stored in memory, and may be played at any time. To replay the loop, press the RELOOP BUTTON (22). The IN BUTTON (22) and OUT BUT- TON (22) LEDs will again begin to flash indicating SEAMLESS LOOP mode has been activated and your loop will immediately begin to play.

EDITING A LOOP:

Please Note: Only the end point of the loop may be edited. You may make your loop shorter or longer. Before you can edit your seamless loop you obviously must first have created a seamless loop to edit. If you haven’t created a SEAMLESS LOOP, follow the instructions in step 9 to create a loop. If a SEAMLESS LOOP has already been created, press the RELOOP BUTTON (22) to activate your SEAMLESS LOOP (Figure 20) if it is not already activated. To edit your seamless loop’s ending point:

1) Press the OUT BUTTON (22) to return to normal play (Figure 19). This will disengage the SEAMLESS LOOP mode and allows you to edit the loops ending point.

Press the OUT BUTTON (22) again when you reach your new ending point (Figure 19). - FOR A SHORTER LOOP: Press the OUT BUTTON (22) at sooner point in the track. - FOR LONGER LOOP: Press the OUT BUTTON (22) at later point in the track.

10. CHANGING THE TIME DISPLAY (66)/TIME BAR (67):

During normal playback, pressing the TIME BUTTON (18), will change the time display information (66) in the VFD (23). The following is a break down of the time settings and their definitions:

1) REMAIN (68) - This details the time in the VFD (23) as the current tracks’ remaining running time.

2) ELAPSED (68) - This details the time in the VFD (23) as the current tracks’ elapsed running time.

Figure 21

TIME BAR INDICATOR - Details the time defined in the TIME METER (66) as a visual bar icon. As with the TIME METER (66) this bar is also dependent on the selected time function [REMAIN OR ELAPSED. This bar will begin to flash when a track is ending regardless of which time function you are in. Use the flashing bar as a visual reminder that a track is ending.
