HEADRUSH CORE - (4.13) Looper

43
(4.13) Looper
HeadRush Core has a built-in looper that you can use to layer your performances. While the looper’s operation is
shown in the display, you can control most of it conveniently with the footswitches.
Each loop can be up to 5 minutes long, with a maximum of 20 minutes of overdubbed audio at a time across a
maximum of 50 layers.
To access the Looper, tap the Menu icon in the top left of the Main screen, and then tap the Looper
icon. Alternately, press and hold the footswitch 4 (labeled “—Looper”).
To record the first layer of a loop, press the Record footswitch. Recording will begin immediately, and the
footswitch indicator will light red. Press the Record footswitch again to stop recording and start loop playback.
The footswitch is now called Overdub and the footswitch indicator is yellow.
To record additional layers onto the loop (overdub), press the Overdub footswitch. Overdubbing will begin
immediately, and the footswitch indicator will light red. Press the Overdub footswitch again to stop overdubbing
and continue playback.
To erase the top-most (last-added) layer of the loop, press the Peel footswitch. The top-most layer of the loop
will be erased immediately.
To recall the last layer removed, hold the Peel footswitch before performing any overdub actions.
To halve or double the length of the loop, tap the Length field, and turn the encoder. The loop’s relative length
is shown in the Loop Length field. The halving process is non-destructive, so you can restore your original loop
and its content by pressing 2X Loop.
To halve or double the speed of the looper, tap the Speed field, and turn the encoder. The loop’s current relative
speed is shown in the Speed
field.
Tip: Use this to create low bass lines or ultra-high guitar parts that you couldn’t ordinarily play.
