In Jam Control Mode, Bank Up/Down and the FBV channel switches operate as follows:
ARecord/Overdub – step on Record to begin recording your loop. If you start with a Song or Drum countoff, recording begins after the count. If you punch in while a track is playing, recording begins on the nearest beat. Overdub on an existing track at any time.
BPlay/Stop – this switch simply plays or stops your loop. On your first pass, when you initially record your loop, hitting Stop also sets your loop
CUndo/Clear – step on this switch to undo your last recorded take. To clear a track, press and hold for a few seconds, then select Clear in the LCD and press Undo again.
D1/2 Speed – step on this switch to play your loop at 1/2 speed. Press it again to toggle back to normal speed. If you overdub a guitar track at 1/2 speed, then toggle playback to normal speed, your overdub will play back an octave higher.
EBank Up/Down – Bank Up loads the next internal recording; Bank Down loads the previous one. The current recording name will be displayed in the FBV display.
*Note: When an SD track is loaded for playback and overdubbing, Bank Up/Down will replace it with an internal recording, so be sure any SD track changes are saved.
