Loop recording works a little differently

than conventional recording. Capturing

a good loop is all about being in touch

with the rhythm of your musical figure.

¥Start by playing your groove to get a feel for the tempo.

¥Press Record right on the downbeat of the first bar of the loop to start recording.

¥Assuming a four bar loop, press Record again on the downbeat of bar five to end

recording (bar five is essentially the first bar repeated).

Now you've captured a complete 4 bar loop that will play back perfectly every time.

Sound Design Considerations

Repeater is a great sound design tool for music production. By using Repeater's excep-

tional time stretching algorithms you can combine and synchronize loops of different

tempos together into one new loop (see sidebar). By utilizing Repeater's FX loop you can

add an external Filter or effects unit to shape the sound of each track. Once you're satis-

fied you can re-sample the loop and export it to your PC via the CFC or Digital output.

Recording a Loop

Set your levels so that the Signal bi-color LED goes red every once in a while.

Keeping it in the yellow will assure great

levels and no harsh digital clipping.

¥Select a track or a pair of tracks to record

to by pressing the Track Select but-

tons (above the Track Level faders.)

¥Set the Track Level(s) to the top which

is unity.

¥Press Record to start recording. The

next time you press Record or Play,

the recording will finish, and the loop will

immediately start playing back.

¥Selecting a pair of tracks simultaneously

sets Repeater to record in stereo. The

Stereo LED will go on to indicate that the pair of tracks have

been linked for stereo.

Note. If you are recording in stereo on your initial pass,

Repeater automatically pans the tracks hard Left and hard Right.

GETTING STARTED

Recording and

Combining Loops

at Different

Tempos

Say you've got a drum

loop at 100 BPM and

you want to add a shak-

er loop to a new track

but its tempo is 94 BPM.

With Repeater you can

record samples that

were different tempos

and synchronize them

into the same loop,

here's how:

á First load the drum

loop just like we've been

teaching you.

á Now select BEAT

DETECT SYNC.

á Play your new sample

at the new tempo.

á Wait for Repeater to

get a lock on the tempo

á You will now hear that

the two samples are syn-

chronized.

á press Record on

the downbeat and press

Record again to

stop the recording.

á Now switch back to

USER SYNC and set the

tempo back to 100 BPM.

Press both tracks to create a stereo pair
