<- (Loop) When a Song Step containing a Loop command becomes active, the Song immediately resets to Song Step #1. If Song Step #1 contains a “0” (No Program) item, the Song moves forward to the next non-”0“ Step.

Use Loop when you want to repeat a harmonic structure multiple times.

E (End) When a Song Step containing End becomes active, the ATR-1a enters Bypass Mode and additional presses of the Foot Switch or MIDI Increment commands have no affect. The only way to proceed to the next Song is select a new Song on the front panel or via MIDI program change.

It’s a good idea to put an End command at the end of every Song to avoid the possibility of accidentally getting lost in your Song list.

-> (Link) When a Song Step containing a Link item becomes active, any Song Steps in the remainder of the current Song are ignored and the ATR- 1a moves immediately to the next Song (in numerical order). If Song Step #1 of the new Song contains a “0” (No Program) item, the Song moves forward to the next non-”0” Step.

Use Link when your Song requires more than 15 Steps.

0 (No Program) Song Steps containing a No Program Item are ignored when stepping through a Song using either the Foot Switch or MIDI Increment commands. (i.e., If Song Step #1 contains a Program Number, Song Step #2 contains a “0” and Song Step #3 contains another Program Number, pressing the Foot Switch while on Step #1 will move you immedi- ately to Step #3.)

You can, of course, move to a Song Step containing a “0” Item by using the the front panel data knob. In that case, no pitch correction will occur while that Song Step is displayed.

All unprogrammed Song Steps initially default to “0.”

The Song Vibrato page operates in exactly the same manner as the Pro- gram Vibrato page described above. However, the Song Vibrato settings override the Vibrato settings of any Programs called up by any of the Song Steps.
