I got my Remote yesterday, and my first reaction after trying it for a short time, is that it seems very well built and thought out. I'm looking forward to having more time to play with it and set up Performances and so on.
I've never used a looper before, and as there is one on board, I'd like to make use of it. So a couple of questions I have are:
- Is there a way to create a loop, say a chord sequence, and get it to seamlessly start again, in time?
- Tried the 'half time' button, and it worked but sometimes at normal pitch, sometimes down an octave. Actually that may be good if I can select both, but I can't see how this is selected?
The manual info seems a bit sparse (the remote manual, and the section in the main PDF). I realise that the Remote is meant to be really easy to use, so shouldn't need much documentation, but the fact that some buttons seem to have multiple LED's next to them suggests that there is a lot more you can do than simple on / off, and it would be good if that could be clearly documented somewhere. Maybe it is, or maybe there is a video somewhere?
Regarding my first question, about getting a loop to play seamlessly (in time), that may be an obvious thing to people who have used loopers before, but I'm new to this. If there are online resources with good generic tips on using loopers, that would be useful to know. I certainly want to use it for trying out ideas quickly, jamming, and things like soundchecking seems a great option!
A good product (KPA) seems to get better and better, and I'm hoping that with future OS upgrades, new profiles and people contributing to this forum, there is a lot more good stuff to come!
