More Tasty Looping Tidbits
The fun doesn’t stop yet—here are more things to explore when using either the Classic
or 1 Switch Looper:
Record some rhythmic muted strums or hits on your guitar to lay down a per-
cussion “track,” over which you can record some overdubs.
Try recording “volume swells” of guitar chords on an overdub or two for ambi-
ent pad backgrounds.
Use the Mic In for vocals, acoustic instruments, or various bodily functions for
some multifarious, layered compositions.
The Half-Speed and Reverse loop playback options, once enabled within the
Classic Looper mode, remain active for the 1 Switch Looper as well. You can
temporarily switch the Selector knob to LOOPER to access these functions via
the TAP switch, then exit Looper mode and use the 1 Switch Looper.
Connect an external MIDI controller device to remotely trigger any of the Looper
functions. There are even Undo and Redo commands available via MIDI. See
"Controlling the Looper" on page 53.
You can control the Classic Looper knob parameters via expression pedal or
footswitches—see "Controlling The Classic Looper Parameters" on page 17.
Remember that when you record your loop to the DL4 MkII’s internal memory,
your loop is discarded once you power the device off. But if you record your
loop with a microSD card inserted, your last recorded loop remains on the card,
even after ejecting and powering your DL4 MkII off.
