QUICK START GUIDE
RECORDING AND WORKING WITH
MULTITRACK LOOPS
Make Connections and Set Input Level
1. Plug your instrument or microphone into
either the L or R INPUT jacks and adjust the
corresponding INPUT knob so that the CLIP
LED barely lights up on your loudest notes.
2. Connect the MONITOR OUT jack to an
amplifier or mixer. Turn up the HEADPHONE
LVL knob to approximately 50%.
3. Plug the supplied AC Adapter into an AC
outlet and insert its output plug into the
power jack on the rear panel of the 95000.
Prior to Recording
1. Raise the corresponding L or R DRY OUTPUT
fader so that you can hear your instrument.
2. Raise the TRACK 1 fader so that you can
hear your recording when you finish.
3. Make sure the QUANTIZE LED is off.
4. If you do not want to hear the metronome,
turn the CLIX LVL knob down to zero; if you
do want to hear the metronome, adjust to
taste. Adjust the tempo of the metronome
with the TEMPO slider or by pressing the TAP
button—in time—at least twice.
5. Set the TEMPO slider to 50% (or your
preferred tempo if listening to the
metronome). You may also tap in the
tempo using the TAP button.
6. Find an empty loop by pressing the LOOP
UP () or DOWN () footswitches. The left
two digits of the display show you the loop
number. If there is a dot next to the loop
number then the loop contains audio; no
dot indicates that the loop is empty.
Record a Multitrack Loop
1. Press the RECORD footswitch to start recording
immediately. The 95000 will begin recording
onto TRACK 1. The red 4-digit LED displays the
progression of the loop in bars and beats.
2. When you are ready to end the loop and set the
loop length, press either the RECORD or PLAY
() footswitches. Press RECORD to stop
recording and immediately begin playback of
the loop you just recorded. Press PLAY to loop
the 95000 back to the beginning, put the 95000
into OVERDUB mode, and automatically
continue recording onto TRACK 2. To exit
OVERDUB mode, press the RECORD button.
3. To record on another track, press the TRACK
footswitch to cycle through the 6 tracks OR go
directly to a track by pressing its illuminated
button. The lit track button indicates the track
is enabled for recording.
Overdub onto a Track
1. You can continuously overdub onto any one (or
pair) of the tracks.
2. Record a New Loop onto TRACK 1. See Record
a Multitrack Loop (above).
3. Press the TRACK footswitch until TRACK 1 is lit,
or you may directly press the TRACK 1 button.
4. Press the RECORD button. Both the RECORD and
PLAY LEDs will light up to show that you are in
Overdub mode. The lit TRACK 1 LED indicates
you are overdubbing onto TRACK 1.
5. Move TRACK 1’s fader to adjust its volume.
6. Repeat these steps to overdub onto any track
number—just press the TRACK footswitch until
the track on which you want to overdub is
selected.
4
Undo and Redo
1. Select the track you want to undo.
2. Press and release the UNDO footswitch. The
last layer of audio on the track is removed
and the previous version of the track begins
playing. The UNDO LED lights up.
3. If only one layer of audio was recorded on
the track, then the track plays back silence.
4. Press and release the UNDO footswitch to
return—or redo—the audio layer that undo
had removed. The previous layer of audio
begins playing back as you last heard it.
Erase a Track
1. Select the track you want to erase.
2. Press and hold the TRACK footswitch.
3. After about a second you will see both the
TRACK LED and selected Track button
blink. Continue to hold down TRACK (for
about one more second) until the TRACK
LED stops blinking.
4. You may now release the footswitch as the
track has been erased. You can UNDO the
Track Erase by pressing the UNDO footswitch.
Erase a Loop
1. Press and hold both the TRACK and
UNDO footswitches.
2. After about one second, all the Track
buttons blink. Continue to hold down the
footswitches for about another second
until the LEDs stop blinking. You may now
release the footswitches. The loop has
been erased.
CAUTION: You cannot undo a loop erase.
Once you erase a loop it is gone forever
(unless you backed it up onto a computer).
Record 2 Tracks Simultaneously (Stereo):
1. Press and hold both buttons of the stereo
pair that you want to record. Stereo mode
is enabled immediately upon pressing the
second button in the pair. You should see
the two tracks in the stereo pair lit up.
2. After connecting to the L and R INPUT
jacks, adjust the INPUT Level knobs so that
the CLIP LEDs barely light. The L INPUT
records to odd numbered tracks only; R
INPUT records to even numbered tracks.
3. Press the RECORD footswitch to begin
recording immediately.
4. To stop recording, press either the RECORD
or PLAY footswitches.
Record a Quantized Loop
1. Press the QUANTIZE button to enable
Quantize mode. The button will light up.
2. Turn the CLIX LEVEL knob up so you hear
the metronome beat coming out of either
the MONITOR or HEADPHONES output.
NOTE: The CLIX metronome is not output
through the L and R OUTPUT jacks.
3. The metronome tempo may be adjusted by
the TEMPO slider or by tapping in a tempo
with the TAP button. When the tempo is
changed, the display will briefly show the
tempo in BPM.
4. Press the RECORD footswitch. The 95000
will not immediately begin recording but
instead will give you a 1-bar count-in,
where beat 1 of the bar occurs at the
moment you press RECORD. After the
Count-In is complete, the 95000 begins
recording on beat 1 of the following bar.
NOTE: The Count-In bar length may be
adjusted or disabled.
5. During Count-In, the bars count down and
the beats count up with a minus sign in
front of the bar number. The Track 1
button also blinks rapidly.
6. The 95000 begins recording at the end of
the Count-In, as indicated by the flashing
Track 1 button going solid and the minus
sign being removed from the display.
7. Stop recording by pressing either the
RECORD or PLAY footswitches. Press RECORD
or PLAY within the first 2 beats of the
current bar and the 95000 will truncate the
loop length to the end of the previous bar.
Press RECORD or PLAY during the 3rd or 4th
beats of the current bar and the 95000 will
finish recording the current bar and then
stop recording. For example, if you want to
record a 2 bar loop, you can press the PLAY
button during the 3rd and 4th beat of the
second bar or within the first 2 beats of the
third bar. The QUANTIZE button will blink
rapidly until the loop has finished recording.
5
MIXING
Prepare to Mix
1. You can mix your 6 tracks down to one
stereo Mixdown track at any time. For now,
let’s start with the 95000 in Idle (stopped)
mode. If the 95000 is playing or
overdubbing a loop, press the PLAY
footswitch to stop.
2. Press the MIXDOWN button once and it will
light solid to indicate that the Mixdown
track has been enabled for overdubbing.
3. Press the PLAY footswitch. Your loop will
play back. Move the Volume and Pan
controls of the 6 tracks to establish a
satisfactory balance.
NOTE: You can adjust the Volume and Pan
controls as much as you like when
recording the Mixdown track.
Perform a Mix
1. When you are ready to record the Mixdown
track, press the RECORD footswitch. You
will immediately begin recording your mix
onto the Mixdown track.
2. The Mixdown track records the audio output
from the 95000’s mixer, enabling you to
record your volume fader and pan movements
as you hear them.
3. To stop recording the Mixdown track, press
either the PLAY or RECORD footswitch.
4. Move the Mixdown slider up, move all of
the track sliders down. Press PLAY to hear
the newly recorded mix.
NOTE: The original audio on the 6 mono
tracks remains after you complete a
mixdown. In other words, the mixdown
operation does not erase the 6 tracks. The
Dry Input signal is not recorded to the
Mixdown track. Only audio that was
previously recorded onto the 6 tracks will
be recorded to the Mixdown track.
RESTORE FACTORY SETTINGS
To restore your 95000 to its original factory
setting: press and hold the REVERSE button for 5
seconds or longer until you see some of the TRACK
buttons blink and all three small LEDs below the
Display are unlit.
Restoring the 95000 factory settings has NO
effect on the audio loops you store on the
microSDHC card.
6
BASIC TERMINOLOGY AND KEY CONCEPTS
ERASE: The act of deleting an entire loop, one track, or a stereo pair of tracks when a stereo pair is enabled.
You cannot undo a loop that has been erased. Once a loop is erased it is permanently deleted.
To erase an entire loop do one of the following:
Press and hold the TRACK and UNDO footswitches simultaneously for two seconds. After the
Track LEDs stop blinking, the loop is erased.
Press the NEW LOOP button while the loop is idle or in playback. Then press the RECORD
footswitch to begin recording. Once you press the RECORD footswitch, the old audio that was
at the current loop location is erased.
While recording a New Loop, press the NEW LOOP button to abort the recording and
immediately erase the tracks.
The 95000 does allow you to undo/redo a Track Erase.
IDLE: Equivalent to stop. When idle, the 95000 is not playing, recording or overdubbing.
LOOP: A loop is made up of 6 mono tracks and one stereo Mixdown track. All tracks are the exact same length.
Think of a loop in terms of multi-track tape: the 6 tracks and the Mixdown track in a 95000 loop
always playback, overdub or record in parallel, at the same speed and in the same direction. The
one exception to this rule occurs with the use of Constant Tempo Mixdown mode, as described
later in this manual.
Loops are recorded and played back directly from the inserted microSDHC card.
Up to 100 loops can be stored on one card.
Upon creating a New Loop, the audio for all 6 mono tracks and the Mixdown track are established
on the microSDHC card as silence; they take up space on the card even though you haven’t actually
recorded those tracks yet.
Recording time: The total recorded audio time; varies with size of microSDHC Memory Card.
Loop time: The actual loop length time that you can record. The loop length time will always be
less than the total recording time. This time difference occurs because each loop consists of 6
mono tracks and the stereo Mixdown track, and every loop you record has all seven of these tracks
as .WAV files at equal length.
OVERDUB/OVERDUBBING: The recording of any track after the initial recording of a New Loop. The
RECORD and PLAY LEDs are both lit but the PUNCH button is off. Overdubbing can mean:
Recording on a track—other than Track 1—that has not been previously recorded.
Layering notes or instruments on top of each other on one track or a stereo pair of tracks. The
tracks’ DUB setting acts like a feedback control that may attenuate any previously recorded audio
with each loop cycle.
QUANTIZE:A mode that allows the user to create loops that are exact bar lengths. Let’s imagine you
need to create a loop that is exactly 3 bars long. Enable Quantize mode to help make this happen.
In Quantize mode, the 95000 starts and stops new-loop recording automatically.
When using Quantize mode, it is best to listen to the 95000’s built-in CLIX metronome or
synchronize the 95000 to an external device that will produce a beat so you know exactly when
recording will stop and start.
By factory default, when Quantize is enabled, a loop begins recording after a one bar Count-In. You
can change the number of bars of the Count-In to up to 8 bars, or you can disable the Count-In
altogether.
When Quantize is disabled, you are able to create loop lengths that are completely freeform.
Loop recording starts immediately upon pressing either RECORD or PLAY footswitch and ends
immediately upon pressing either RECORD or PLAY footswitch.
RECORD: The act of recording a New Loop. When stereo is disabled, the audio is recorded to Track 1. If
stereo is enabled, the audio is recorded onto Tracks 1 and 2.
7
TRACK: A track is a discrete or separate channel of loop audio that may be recorded, overdubbed or
mixed independently from other tracks.
All tracks in a loop are the same length.
All tracks contained in a loop playback, record or overdub at the same speed and direction as the
other tracks.
Each loop contains 6 mono tracks and one stereo track.
UNDO/REDO:
Undo: The undo function allows you to remove the last overdub layer that was recorded on a track.
The 95000 has one level of undo for each track. You can independently undo each track without
affecting the other tracks.
To perform an undo, first ensure the selected track is the one that you want to undo. Then press
and release the UNDO footswitch. The LED above the UNDO footswitch lights to indicate that an
undo has been performed for the selected track.
If you press the RECORD footswitch to overdub after performing an undo on a given track, the
audio layer removed by the undo function will be permanently deleted and cannot be retrieved.
Redo: After performing an undo, restore the layer of audio that was removed by initiating the
redo function.
To perform a redo, first ensure the selected track is the one that you want to redo. Also, ensure
that the UNDO LED is lit—if it is not, there is nothing to redo. Then press and release the UNDO
footswitch to perform the redo.
The redo function restores only the last layer of audio that undo removed.
8
MONITORING
Use the monitoring controls to vary the listening
volume of various signals. None of the following
monitoring controls affect the actual recorded
signal levels.
1. DRY OUTPUT L/R Faders and Pan Knobs
The DRY OUTPUT faders and pan knobs allow
you to monitor your instrument when recording
or to play along with a loop you have already
recorded. Adjust the output volume of your
instrument with the DRY OUTPUT fader. Use the
pan knobs to direct the Left and Right Inputs to
the Left and Right Outputs. When pan is set to
the full CCW position, the Input is monitored at
the Left Output. When pan is set to the full CW
position, the Input is monitored at the Right
Output. When pan is set to the center-detent
middle position, the Input is mixed equally to
both Outputs. When monitoring a stereo signal,
you will generally position the pan pots hard left
and hard right. The settings of the DRY OUTPUT
faders and pan pots have no influence on the
actual recorded signal.
When recording in mono, both inputs are
summed together and recorded onto the same
track. When recording in stereo, the two
inputs remain separate: the Left Input is sent
to the odd-numbered tracks and the Right
Input is sent to the even-numbered tracks.
2. CLIX LVL Knob
Use the CLIX LVL knob to set a comfortable volume
level for the CLIX metronome within the monitoring
chain.
The CLIX metronome is routed to the
MONITOR OUT and Headphones outputs
only. The CLIX metronome is not present
at the L and R OUTPUT jacks.
3. HEADPHONE LVL Knob
The HEADPHONE LVL knob adjusts the output
volume of the rear-mounted Headphone Output
jack and the MONITOR OUT jack. The
HEADPHONE LVL knob is an analog knob placed
in the signal path afterthe 95000’s D/A
Converter. Therefore, it has no bearing on the
level of the recorded audio that is saved to the
microSDHC card. The signal at the MONITOR OUT
jack is fed from the headphone amplifier, and so
you must turn up the HEADPHONE LVL knob to
hear audio at the MONITOR OUT jack.
4. MASTER LVL Knob
This knob is a master volume control for all
signals and output jacks including the Loop,
Dry levels and CLIX levels, as well as the L, R,
Headphone and MONITOR Output jacks. MASTER
LVL does not control the AUX IN volume.
9
THE RECORD TRANSPORT
1. INPUT LEVEL L/ R Knobs and CLIP LEDs
Use the INPUT LEVEL L and R knobs to adjust
the amplitude of the left and right input signals
before they are sent to the A/D Converter. To
set the proper level, turn each INPUT LEVEL
knob clockwise to the point where the
maximum level causes the CLIP LEDs to barely
blink or not light up at all. These LEDs light up
when the audio signal clips—or is on the verge
of clipping—the A/D Converter. In other words,
the CLIP LEDs light when the signal’s amplitude
is greater than what the A/D Converter can
properly handle. The L LED lights when the
LEFT Input clips and the R LED lights when the
RIGHT Input clips.
The trick to achieving the best quality digital audio
is to record the hottest possible signal without
clipping (overloading) the A/D converter. Typically, you
want to record a signal that is neither too low in
volume nor a signal that clips very often (unless
that is the sound you are going for).
NOTE: When recording in mono, both the
Left and Right inputs are summed together
and recorded onto the active track.
Minimize hiss when recording in mono by
turning down the unused INPUT LEVEL knob.
2. NEW LOOP Button
Press the NEW LOOP button to put the 95000
into Record-Ready mode. The NEW LOOP
button lights green whenever the currently
selected loop is empty. Upon pressing NEW
LOOP, the red RECORD LED above the RECORD
footswitch blinks to indicate that the 95000 is
ready to record. Press the NEW LOOP button
again if you decide you want to exit RecordReady mode. Press the RECORD footswitch to
begin recording a New Loop. If the Loop had
been previously occupied with audio, the old
audio is immediately erased upon pressing the
RECORD footswitch. If you press the NEW LOOP
button while recording a New Loop, the recording is
canceled and whatever you recorded up to that
point is discarded. Use the table on the next
page to explore how pressing the NEW LOOP
button acts depending on the current mode of
the 95000.

3. TRACK Footswitch
Use the TRACK footswitch to advance tracks,
erase tracks or to erase an entire loop.
Advance Tracks
Each press and release of the TRACK footswitch
advances to the next track or pair of tracks and
simultaneously activates the newly selected
track(s). The buttons associated with each
track or pair of tracks light green when active.
Erase Tracks
Erase a track so that it plays silence. Typically,
the Track Erase procedure takes about 2 seconds:
Select a track (or stereo pair).
Press and hold the TRACK footswitch until
the TRACK LED and the active Track Select
button(s) blink rapidly.
Keep holding the TRACK switch until the
LEDs stop blinking; the track is now erased.
To abort the erase track operation, release
the TRACK switch early, either while the LED
is blinking or prior to the start of it blinking.
Tracks can be erased while the 95000 is
idle, playing-back or overdubbing.
A track-erase operation can be undone in
the same way as a regular recording.
See Undo/Redo later on this page.
Erase a Loop
Completely erase (delete) a loop, including the
contents of the loop's folder on the microSDHC
card. Once this action is performed, you
CANNOT use UNDO to restore an erased loop.
Simultaneously press and hold the TRACK
and UNDO footswitches until the TRACK
LED and all track-select buttons start to
blink rapidly.
Continue holding the TRACK and UNDO
footswitches until the LEDs stop blinking.
Once the LEDs extinguish, the loop has
been erased. The NEW LOOP button lights
up green to indicate the loop is empty.
To abort the erase operation, release the
TRACK and UNDO footswitches before the
buttons stop blinking.
Abort New Loop Recording
While recording a New Loop, you may abort the
recording and delete all audio files just recorded
by simultaneously pressing both the TRACK and
UNDO footswitches. Once both footswitches are
pressed, the New Loop recording will be aborted.
The audio files are permanently deleted.
4. UNDO Footswitch
The 95000 supports one level of undo/redo per
track. This functionality allows the last
recorded audio layer on a given track to be
removed and then subsequently restored. Each
track’s UNDO operation is independent from
the other tracks.
Undo/Redo
Press and release the UNDO footswitch to undo
the last recording or overdub layer on the
currently selected track. You can select and
undo either a mono track, a stereo-pair track
or a Mixdown track. If only one layer of audio
has been recorded on the track, pressing UNDO
will cause the track to play back silence.
Press and release the UNDO footswitch again to
restore (REDO) the last recording/overdub layer
that had previously been undone.
The UNDO footswitch can be pressed while
the 95000 is idle, playing or overdubbing. If
you are overdubbing, the 95000 will switch
to playback mode and then undo the last
overdub on the currently selected track.
Press the UNDO footswitch again to
redo/restore the previous overdub.
The green LED just above the UNDO
footswitch lights if an undo operation has
been performed on the currently selected
track. A lit UNDO LED indicates that redo
could be performed. Press UNDO again to
redo/restore the last audio layer; the
UNDO LED turns off.

Depending on the 95000’s current mode, the RECORD footswitch serves a few purposes, all of which
enable the 95000 to enter/exit one of the recording modes: Record, Overdub or Punch-In. The red
RECORD LED will light up solid anytime the 95000 is recording or overdubbing audio. The RECORD LED
blinks at a medium rate when the 95000 is in Record-Ready mode. The table below explains the result
of pressing the RECORD footswitch in relation to the current mode of the 95000.
6. PLAY () Footswitch
The PLAY () footswitch is used to toggle Playback on and off. The green PLAY LED will light
anytime the 95000 is playing or overdubbing audio. The table below explains the result of pressing the
PLAY button in relation to the current Record/Playback mode of the 95000. NOTE: Each time a loop
cycles back to the beginning, the PLAY LED blinks once to signify the start of the loop.
7. LOOP Selection Footswitches
Loop selection is incremented or decremented using the LOOP UP and LOOP DOWN footswitches.
Press and hold either footswitch to advance through the loops at a faster speed. The table below
explains the result of pressing the LOOP UP and LOOP DOWN footswitches in relation to the
current mode of the 95000. NOTE: You can also change the current loop by using the VALUE knob.
Refer to the LED DISPLAY AND CONTROL section later in this manual to learn about the use of the
VALUE knob.
