The Multi Pads

To ensure that your repeated rhythmic phrases play back in a perfect loop, be careful to stop recording right on the very last beat of the phrase, just before the “one” of the next measure. If it is difficult to get a good loop, you may want to use the Step Record functions on the EDIT page.
