• Record a sequence of notes, then play it back in a loop.

1. Tap the Record button.
– The recording will start with the first note you tap, indicated by the bright Record light.
2. Tap the notes for your loop.
3. Tap the Play button to begin playback of your loop.

5. Tap Pause to stop the loop.
– For convenience, your loop will always finish its cycle before pausing.
6. Tap Play to start the loop again.
– or – Tap Record to record a new loop.
