The sample length of the LOOP 1 and LOOP 2 tracks will be detected automatically
by the SU700. In this example of creating a song — if samples were recorded cor-
rectly — the SU700 should have detected a LOOP LENGTH of 004 for LOOP 1 and
008 for LOOP 2, and a BPM value in the region of 172 for both. Alternatively, the
SU700 may have detected a LOOP LENGTH of 002 for LOOP 1 and 004 for LOOP 2,
with a BPM in the region of 86 for both. In this latter case, you will need to set the
LOOP LENGTH manually to the correct value.
LOOP LENGTH=008 means that the loop is 8 beats long when calculated at
BPM=172. If the display indicates the wrong loop length for the two loops, use the
dial to correct the settings to LOOP LENGTH = 004 for LOOP 1, and LOOP
LENGTH=008 for LOOP 2. The BPM will be recalculated automatically, and should
be a value in the region of 172.
● Adjusting the volume balance
Here’s how to adjust the volume balance between the LOOP 1 track and the LOOP 2
track.
Procedure
1. Press the SOUND group [LEVEL] button.
2. Press the LOOP 1 pad. The display will numerically indicate the volume level that is
currently specified for the LOOP 1 track.
Use the knob for the LOOP 1 track to set “LEVEL=127.”
3. Next press the LOOP 2 pad, and rotate the knob for the LOOP 2 track to set
“LEVEL=075.”
