Electrix Repeater - Manual (Page 27)

I M P O R TA N T !
Repeater must record or Overdub though the entire length of the ÒVirtual TrackÓ after which it flattens the
track and it is no longer virtual. If you do not record through the entire length of the loop Repeater will auto-
matically keep recording until the end of the loop. During this time the Record LED will flash to indicate that
Repeater is still Recording. If you press Stop during the recording immediately after a Loop Multiply your
overdub will be lost.
You can multiply the loop out by a factor greater than two by pressing and holding the Loop Multiply Button.
Use the Tempo encoder to select the multiplication factor. Release Loop Multiply to execute. If you have multi-
plied the loop further than you wanted, you can multiply the loop by a fraction to get back to where you started, or
to a smaller number of multiples of the original loop. Just rotate the tempo encoder to the left to access the available
fractional multiples of the current loop. Note this is only possible for loops consisting completely of 'virtual' tracks.

If Repeater has not figured out the proper bars, beats and division for your loop, don't worry; you can edit this infor-
mation. Changing these values has no effect on the
actual audio, it will however affect how the loop syncs
to incoming tempo information.
¥ Press and hold Sync to get into the Tempo Edit
mode.
¥ Use the Loop knob to edit the total number of
beats in the loop
¥ Use the Tempo knob to change the time signa-
ture.
¥You can always return to the tempo the loop was recorded at by pressing Stop and then Tap Tempo.
RECORDING POLYRHYTHMIC TIME SIGNAT U R E S

To record in a polyrhythmic time signatureÉ
¥ First, in User Sync mode, select a new loop.
¥ Record your first part.
¥ Now press and hold the Sync button to enter BEAT EDIT. Here you can use the Loop and Tempo knobs to
change the number of beats and the division.
