What are Ambience and FX?
The “Ambience” selected is a global function, meaning that all kits will use this eect. You can select from various types of
rooms and halls.
“FX” is a full blown eects unit that can be used on an individual kit basis.

What is a Phrase Loop?
The Phrase Loop function is a recording feature that allows you to loop
record something in real time, and then overdub on top. The potential is
very exciting for live performances.
As each phrase has three “parts” it means, for example, that you can record
a 16-beat phrase on part 1, some Latin percussion on part 2, and a either
record or just perform a melodic percussion kit on top. It’s almost like
having three OCTAPADs!
Editing and Saving Your Data
The OCTAPAD features some powerful editing tools such as tuning, muing, tone color
etc. Also, the FX for each kit can be edited as well. This allows you to really personalize your
sound.
All of your edits are automatically saved internally. If you need to, you can restore an
individual kit to the factory settings. See “04 FACTORY RESET” (p. 20).
You can also use a USB memory (sold separately) to save your data. See p. 56.
