Boss RC-50 - Multi Mode Operation Examples

Examples of the Use of Multi Mode
The following describes how Multi mode can be used when Loop Sync is on and when it is switched off.
When Loop Sync is on, you can obtain simultaneous playback of three phrases, with the phrases played at the same tempo and with the same length.
Example 1) Recording three blank phrases, one after another, to create an
ensemble when played in real time
fig.05-010
In this manner, using the PHRASE 1, 2, and 3 pedals and REC/PLAY/OVERDUB pedal to switch the current phrase as you proceed with the
recording, you can continue recording one phrase after another while playing back the phrase or phrases recorded thus far.
Although repeatedly overdubbing using a single phrase so as to make Phrase 2 and Phrase 3 the same length as Phrase 1 produces a similar effect,
the ability to stop any selected phrase and realize other forms of control of the phrases enables a greater degree of performance expression.
You cannot overdub with a phrase that is set to ONE SHOT. In addition, such phrases cannot be played back using loop playback.
• The recorded length varies according to the Tempo Sync settings.
For more detailed information, refer to “Playing Back Phrases with All Lengths and Beginnings Aligned: Loop Sync” (p. 28).
• When phrases are recorded with Loop Sync switched on, each phrase is made the same length. When there are phrases that have already
been recorded, a phrase will be set to the same length as the phrase with the longest recording time even if you stop recording when the
length is shorter than the existing phrase.
Example 2) Playing back phrases as an ensemble, beginning playback of
recorded phrases one after another
fig.05-020
Regardless of the timing at which the REC/PLAY/OVERDUB pedal is pressed, phrases start playing according to their location within the overall
playback.
When the ONE SHOT function is used for a phrase, playback starts from the beginning of the phrases when the REC/PLAY/OVERDUB
pedal is pressed.
Example 3)
Recording to a blank phrase in time with previously recorded Phrase 3
fig.05-030
When you have a phrase that has already been recorded, recording continues until the end of the previously recorded phrase, after which
overdubbing begins.
