Looper Details
Looper Details
The Looper in the M13 is similar to the looper in the DL4 Stompbox Modeler. It gives you up to 30 seconds of mono recording time at normal speed, or 60 seconds at half speed. Keep in mind your loop will play back in mono, even if you’re running stereo FX.
Looper & Live Guitar
When you record and play back a loop, your current Scene will still be active. In fact, while your loop is playing you can select a new Scene at any time by stepping on the Scenes switch, then selecting a Scene as usual.
Since the M13 responds to MIDI messages, you can optionally set up a MIDI control | 4•1 | ||||
device to control the looper, leaving all 12 of your FX Unit switches dedicated to your M13 |
| ||||
effects. This way, you could switch your M13’s four sets of A, B and C effects on or off at |
| ||||
any time and still control Play, Record, Overdub, Half Speed and Reverse functions. |

Below is a Reference Table of MIDI CC values for controlling M13 Looper functions via |
