For all you RC-2’rs. I stumbled
across a way of erasing phrases when you’re simply creating them on the fly and
not saving them to memory. This will allow you to not have to keep bending down
to mess with the phrase track knob to eliminate your last loop phrase. Here’s
what I do: -
connect an
FS-5U pedal and instead having the switch moved toward the plugged in cable (as
rec’d). move it in the other direction. -
Select the
drum track you want -
Set the
mode switch to the normal operating mode (second position from right) -
Press the
pedal in sync with your first chord, note whatever you start with and play
through your phrase progression/loop (you won’t hear the drum/guide track
during this initial recording. -
Press the
pedal and your loop is going, then overdub at will -
When you’re
finished with that loop and want to create a new one (using the same drum
track), press the pedal and hold it down until the loop stops playing (usually one
measure), press the FS-5U pedal once the drum track may go for a couple of
beats then stop, then press the RC-2 pedal once (it may play for a couple of
beats then it stops. -
Now you’re
ready to start again, and you start ove rusing the same drum track. Not sure if this is simply a glitch
but the manual doesn’t mention this and believe it saves the bending over and
over and over thing, unless you’re working on your abs! Mike |
