PLAYING SAMPLES

1.Move toggle in the down direction to play only once. If the unit is in stutter mode the sample will play to the end unless the toggle is moved again. If the unit is not in stutter mode then playback will end when the toggle is released.

2.Move the toggle upward to play a sample as a loop. Moving multiple samples up will allow them to play in sequence.

3.While a sample is playing as a loop other samples can be played back as well as single play. One single play sample and one loop can be played at the same time creating some very interesting effects.
