Repeat
Slicer example 1: Repeat effect options
Click to choose a timing value for the Repeat effect. If you click 1/16, for example, a
sixteenth-note-sized chunk of the pattern will be looped until you select another value or
let go of the pad. Results will vary based on where you were when you triggered the
effect.
Note that the Repeat effect is similar to the Repeat mix effect, except that Repeat does
not continue to play the entire pattern underneath the repeated section.
Tape
Click the Slicer button again to select the next effect, which will be the Tape effect:
Slicer example 2: Selecting the Tape FX
The Tape effect simulates the effect of slowing down a tape player. The different values
inside the FX Live pad grid represent the amount of time it will take the pattern to slow
to a stop.
Reverse
The Reverse effect simulates the effect of playing a tape recording backwards.
Strobe
The Strobe effect will play and shut off the sound alternately at the rate of the selected
note value.
Pan
The Pan effect will move the sound from the left speaker to the right speaker at the rate
of the selected note value.
