QUICK START GUIDE
RECORDING AND WORKING WITH
MULTITRACK LOOPS
Make Connections and Set Input Level
1. Plug your instrument or microphone into
either the L or R INPUT jacks and adjust the
corresponding INPUT knob so that the CLIP
LED barely lights up on your loudest notes.
2. Connect the MONITOR OUT jack to an
amplifier or mixer. Turn up the HEADPHONE
LVL knob to approximately 50%.
3. Plug the supplied AC Adapter into an AC
outlet and insert its output plug into the
power jack on the rear panel of the 95000.
Prior to Recording
1. Raise the corresponding L or R DRY OUTPUT
fader so that you can hear your instrument.
2. Raise the TRACK 1 fader so that you can
hear your recording when you finish.
3. Make sure the QUANTIZE LED is off.
4. If you do not want to hear the metronome,
turn the CLIX LVL knob down to zero; if you
do want to hear the metronome, adjust to
taste. Adjust the tempo of the metronome
with the TEMPO slider or by pressing the TAP
button—in time—at least twice.
5. Set the TEMPO slider to 50% (or your
preferred tempo if listening to the
metronome). You may also tap in the
tempo using the TAP button.
6. Find an empty loop by pressing the LOOP
UP () or DOWN () footswitches. The left
two digits of the display show you the loop
number. If there is a dot next to the loop
number then the loop contains audio; no
dot indicates that the loop is empty.
Record a Multitrack Loop
1. Press the RECORD footswitch to start recording
immediately. The 95000 will begin recording
onto TRACK 1. The red 4-digit LED displays the
progression of the loop in bars and beats.
2. When you are ready to end the loop and set the
loop length, press either the RECORD or PLAY
( ) footswitches. Press RECORD to stop
recording and immediately begin playback of
the loop you just recorded. Press PLAY to loop
the 95000 back to the beginning, put the 95000
into OVERDUB mode, and automatically
continue recording onto TRACK 2. To exit
OVERDUB mode, press the RECORD button.
3. To record on another track, press the TRACK
footswitch to cycle through the 6 tracks OR go
directly to a track by pressing its illuminated
button. The lit track button indicates the track
is enabled for recording.
Overdub onto a Track
1. You can continuously overdub onto any one (or
pair) of the tracks.
2. Record a New Loop onto TRACK 1. See Record
a Multitrack Loop (above).
3. Press the TRACK footswitch until TRACK 1 is lit,
or you may directly press the TRACK 1 button.
4. Press the RECORD button. Both the RECORD and
PLAY LEDs will light up to show that you are in
Overdub mode. The lit TRACK 1 LED indicates
you are overdubbing onto TRACK 1.
5. Move TRACK 1’s fader to adjust its volume.
6. Repeat these steps to overdub onto any track
number—just press the TRACK footswitch until
the track on which you want to overdub is
selected.
