Setting up your first song
To make sure we start with a “clean slate,” we will create a
new song.
TIP
The 2488neo is shipped from the fac tory with a new
song ready for you to record. However, if the 2488 neo
has been used before, it will automatically load th e
last song that was worked on, and you may need to
follow these instructions to create a new song. Nor -
mally, though, this will not be needed.
