Rotate the MODE knob clockwise to cycle around the modes in a clockwise
direction. For example, rotate clockwise to move from BANK to R TEMPO to R
TYPE. Rotate MODE counter-clockwise to cycle through the modes in a counter-
clockwise direction, for example from BANK to LOOP to OVERDUB.
As you move from mode to mode, the 4-digit display shows the value of the
current mode. When you arrive at the mode you want to adjust, press and
release the MODE knob. Once a mode is selected, its LED goes solid. At this
point, turn the MODE knob to adjust the current value of the selected mode.
Press and release the MODE knob again to exit the current mode. The mode LED
will start blinking and you may now cycle around to other modes.
BANK Mode – BANK mode allows the user to choose the current loop bank. The
loop banks are not stored internally to the 22500 but instead are located on the
SD Card. The range of available banks on any given SD Card is 00 to 99. A blank
card gives you 100 empty banks ready for use.
Whenever you select an empty bank, most mode values automatically default
back to the last settings you used when recording a new initial loop even if it was
in a different bank number. The 22500 defaults back to your last used mode
values so that you can set up the 22500 to work a certain way and always come
back to that way of working when creating new loops. If you would like to
change your default settings, first go to an empty bank and then change the
settings before starting to record on either loop. The following modes are saved
as part of your default loop mode: LOOP, OVERDUB, TRIGGER, R TEMPO, R
TYPE, R LEVEL, RHYTHM, and TAP ON.
The 22500 does not allow Loop Banks to change while a loop is recording or
overdubbing. If you change banks while playing loops, everything stops.
LOOP Mode – LOOP mode is used to set key parameters for creating loops and
controlling how the loops interact with each other. In LOOP mode you can
choose Parallel or Sequential loop play, set up Quantize, Freeform or Loop-Lock,
the Loop-Lock Multiple, and 1-Shot modes.
LOOP mode has 3 pages. Pages 2 and 3 disable/enable 1-Shot mode while the
first page sets all the other parameters listed above. Here’s a more in-depth
breakdown of LOOP mode’s 3 pages:
