Loop Playback Level Setting
If you set the playback level at 50 (default value), the volume of
the performance and that of the loop playback will be identical.
If you set the playback level to a value lower than 50, the
volume of the playback will be lower than that of the
performance. As a result, the sound of the performance won’t
get buried by the loop playback sound, even if you record a
multiple number of times.
1
Long-press the [LOOP] button of the part
(guitar or vocal) whose playback level you want to
set.
2
Use the [
