This controller allows you to choose which instrument(s)
you would like to record and the duration of the recording.
The number of bars that you can record for is ‘latched’ on –
the LED lit green is the currently latched duration, the other
durations are lit red. You can then choose which instrument
you want to record.
The keys with amber LEDs allow you to browse the Audio Unit
FX plugins for each instrument. The other strip of keys allow
you to bypass the eect – when the LED is red, the eect is
bypassed.
