Details about the track length

The length of a track (measured in beats) results from the first recording in the respective
track. The behavior differs depending on whether the recording is started while the
internal clock (time base) is running or while the internal clock is stopped.
Note: The clock is stopped when the MIDI LOOPER is powered up. This is also the case, if
you explicitly stop it as described in the chapter "What happens when you press a button
while all tracks are selected?".
•
Recording mode with stopped clock (Clock Source = internal clock):
The length of the track may be exactly 1 quarter notes or 1 ... 64 bars. The
automatic bpm detection determines how many bars are derived from the
recording duration (in seconds).

•
Recording mode with clock running:
The track length will be rounded to 1 to 16 quarter notes according to the
recording time (in seconds). From the beginning of the 17th quarter note the
track length is rounded up to whole bars (5 ... 64).

Push the right knob and you get to the options menu. The left button does not shine, the
right button flashes yellow, because the first options menu item is already selected (clock
speed in BPM), see explanation below.
Turn the right knob to switch between the options (turn with clockwise and you get to the
next option, turn against clockwise and you get to the previous option). Turn the left knob
to adjust the value of the current selected option.
