I see how you can drag the waveforms up to the area above them, but beyond that I don’t really get it.

What are the 2 vertical bars for though? I don’t notice any difference when I drag and rearrange the samples horizontally.

Can someone explain the concept?

I’m no authority on this at all as I have my own issues with there being no user guide available but I think I figured that bit out: think of the wave forms you drag up there as mixer volume channles. It doesn’t matter where you place them, you can rrange them any way you like - it’s not a sequencer. The only thing that matters is the “volume” and how you combine your samples/tracks.

Appreciate the reply.
This is sure a cool app, but for $20 I feel like we should have some documentation and not just have to randomly poke around to try and figure out functions…

Hi,

The 3 areas you can drag the loops to are the mix zones.

Each Zone can be individually routed to the effects buss via the colored buttons under the zone.

This lets you keep the bass and drum part unaffected while you add delay to a vocal or lead for example.

The crossfader at the bottom of the 3 zones works between the left and right mix zones with the middle on always on for transitional loops.

While loops are active in the zones you can add a new Loop set to the Loop holding area below the zones to start adding to elements.

I hope this help you.

Thanks,

—kT
