there are three pages, mix, play, and edit. navigate with encoder 1. hold key 1 for ALT.

nb: tape speed behavior by default is free; however, it can be quantized to many different scales via the parameters menu. skip behavior by default is a loop reset; however, it can be configured to jump to random positions via the parameters menu.

edit

_nb: turning rec L/R off will hold the buffer, allowing use as a looper._
