looping a toon on the Pioneer MEP-7000

Lesson Beginner Stage 6: Performance Technique November 2010

Contents of the video

Alright guys, did a similar video to this on a tabletop CD player. In this one we're going to look at forming a loop without any hiccup whatsoever. Now this guy here is the MEP7000. Now generally what people tend to do when they form a loop, they will hit the in on the count of 1 and the out on the count of 1. So in other words, hit 1, 2, 3, 4. 1, 2, 3, 4. Sorry, I whacked it. Fun TV guys. The in on one and the out on one. I'll give you a demo on that. As in 1, 2, 3, 4. 1, 2, 3, 4. That's not bad actually, fair dos. What I'm going to do though, I'm going to make it even better by hitting the in and the out on slightly on the offbeat. In other words, 1, 2, 3, 4 as in the one and then I'm going to hit it slightly after the one. So, watch, 2, 3, 4, watch.

So the first shh was the in, the second shh was the out. Have a listen. 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3, 4, 1, 2, 3, 4. There you go. There is a loop. Practice and enjoy.
