Quick Start Manual

MULTI-MODE TRIGGER BUTTONS

By pressing the circular MODE button, you can choose the desired mode for the three trigger buttons shown above. There are

three modes available:

LOOP-2:

In this mode the three TRIGGER BUTTONS act as another set of loop buttons that

behave in the same way as the buttons above them. This gives you the ability to set two

completely separate sets of loop points. For more information on looping, see the

following chapter.

HOT CUE:

This mode will allow you to set up to three "hot cue points". These are similar to regular

cue points, except that when the TRIGGER BUTTONS are pressed, the unit will instantly

jump to the defined point and begin playing.

To define a hot cue point, make sure you are in hot cue mode by pressing the circular

MODE button until "Mode:Hot CUE" is displayed on the lower portion of the screen.

Press REC to arm recording, then press the desired TRIGGER BUTTON. Whatever

point you are at on the CD at the moment you press the TRIGGER BUTTON is the point

that will be recorded to the TRIGGER BUTTON. To instantly start playing from your hot

cue point just press the same TRIGGER BUTTON again.

SAMPLE:

The third mode is sample mode. Sample mode allows you to record an audio sample up

to 5 seconds long, on each of the 3 TRIGGER BUTTON.

To record a sample, first make sure you are in sample mode by pressing the round

MODE button until the display shows "Mode:SAMPLES". Next, press and release REC

to arm recording. Then, when you press one of the three TRIGGER BUTTONS, the unit

will begin recording until you either press that TRIGGER BUTTON again to stop

recording or you run out of sample space.

To play back your sample, just press the appropriate TRIGGER BUTTON. Buttons with

samples assigned to them will be lit while unused buttons will be dark.

There are also three playback options you can choose for each of the three sample

TRIGGER BUTTONS. To choose a mode, hold the REC button, then while continuing to

hold REC, hold the desired TRIGGER BUTTON and turn the PARAMETER knob to

select the option you want to change. To modify the selected option, press down and

release the PARAMETER knob then turn the knob to the desired setting. Press down on

the PARAMETER knob to lock in that option choice.

The three playback options are:

Sample Insert (On, Off): Determines whether the sample will override the currently

playing audio source or if it will be mixed together with the currently playing

audio source. With 'On' selected, the sample will override the playing audio,

while with 'Off' selected, the sample will be mixed in with the playing audio.

Sample Reverse (On, Off): When on, this option will play the sample in reverse.

Sample Volume (0-100): This setting controls the volume of the sample when

played back.
