RecMode

When recording the first track of a new song, you will be able to record as if you had an endless length of “tape” no matter what the recording mode is set to.

When you record the first track, all recording modes operate the same way. This is because until you define the length of a new song, its End point is the default setting of Bar 8001, the maximum amount of Bars in a song. The End point is referenced and modified in different ways depending on the RecMode.

The End point of a song is defined when:

1.The Stop button is pressed to end the recording of the first track. The new End point is aligned to the nearest downbeat of the (empty) Bar immediately following the last Bar you were recording when Stop was pressed.

2.Stop is pressed while recording any track past the previously set End point in Linear or UnLoop recording mode. Again, the new End point is aligned to the downbeat of the (empty) Bar immediately following the last Bar you were recording when Stop was pressed.

3.The AutoOut Bar and Beat is set past current End point, after recording in Auto RecMode, and when the first track is recorded in Auto RecMode, the AutoOut Bar and Beat becomes the End point.
