Only 25 [0–127]
0-63: Looper & Effects; 64-127: Looper Only
Allows you to mute the effects and use the pedal as a traditional looper.
Note: Pitch Modulation, Reverb, and Filter remain active in Looper Only mode. Mix allows you to blend back and forth.
0-based
Burst 26 [0–127]
0-63: Default; 64-127: Burst
Burst allows for the creation of fast, one-layer loops.
Note: Phrases recorded in Burst mode will not be saved within User Presets unless Burst is deselected after recording.
0-based
Quantized 27 [0–127]
0-63: Free; 64-127: Quantize
When the Phrase Looper is set to Quantize, Microcosm will trim your loop to the nearest beat in order to synchronize the loop to the effect tempo.
Note: Effect subdivision can be changed freely while Quantize mode is active, but if the global tempo changes, the effect and loop will no longer be in sync. Simply switching presets will reset the global tempo to the quantized loop's tempo while this mode is active, re-syncing the effect and loop tempos.
