BeatSense Technology

The innovative BeatSense technology uses dual built-in microphones to listen to your band's rhythmic elements (like drums) and automatically synchronize your loops to the detected tempo. This ensures your loops stay perfectly in time with the rest of the band.

Probleemoplossing

Geen geluidsuitvoer

Controleer alle kabelaansluitingen (ingang, uitgang, voeding).
Ensure the pedal is receiving power.
Verify the LOOP LEVEL knob is not set to minimum.
Test met verschillende kabels en ampversterker/instrument om het probleem te isoleren.

Loop Not Synchronizing

Ensure the BeatSense microphones are not obstructed.
Verify the external microphone (if used) is properly connected and functioning.
The BeatSense technology works best with clear, consistent rhythmic input (e.g., drums). Complex or irregular rhythms may affect synchronization accuracy.
Ensure the pedal is placed in an optimal position to pick up rhythmic sounds from the band.
