What are tracks 1–5 (p. 12) and phrase memories (p. 15)?
The RC-505 provides ve “tracks” that are used to record and play back the sound of an instrument or a microphone.
These ve tracks combined form what is called a “phrase memory.” Up to 99 phrase memories can be stored.
“Tracks 1–5,” “Rhythm,” “Input FX,” and “Track FX” settings are saved individually for each phrase memory.
What is a rhythm? (p. 19)
In addition to the ve tracks, the RC-505 can also play a “Rhythm.” You can record while listening to a rhythm at the tempo you
specify.
What is the Input FX and Track FX? (p. 20)
You can apply eects to the audio input and to the sound of the tracks, respectively.
These eects are referred to as “Input FX” and “Track FX.”
What are system settings? (p. 22)
Settings that apply to the entire RC-505, such as those for the contrast of the display, the auto o function, the USB, and MIDI
functions, are called “system settings.”
Overview of the RC-505
“Recording” versus “Overdub”
In this manual, we refer to the act of recording to an empty track for the rst time as “recording.” Any subsequent recordings that are made,
which are added on top of the existing recording, we refer to as “overdub.”
