It does seem to be mapped to any function in the latest software. It doesn’t do anything when I press it and it stays unlit.
good question, I think they may have broken it…
I seem to remember it bringing up settings for the looper, a bit like the way scale/arp/routing does. i.e. these buttons were like ‘modes’, a flat level.
but a while back, they seem to make the ‘loop window’ a top level window, so “back” takes you there - which kind of made it ‘redundant’, and so possibly a candidate for ‘re-purposing’.
I had a look at the manual, and it shows “11.14 Looper Settings Screen”.
though, oddly, I don’t remember these (though could be wrong)
what I think is possible, is this may be in the process of changing this
(recently, I noticed there was another ‘feature’ mentioned in the manual thats not yet in the released firmware.- 5.9 Api Zone - Finger Data Rate)
also pretty sure the manual said loop not seq before,
so again,perhaps points to it being re-purposed?
whats interesting is, they mentioned adding a sequencer…
I assumed was just going to be an element, or layout similar to the Erae 1…
but if its going to get a dedicated ‘seq’ button, perhaps its going to be, perhaps it’ll be something a bit different, perhaps more a global feature - like the looper, perhaps an alternative view on the looper data!? and seq/loop button will switch between the modes?
That was my best guess too!
