holding the pedal begins record and releasing goes imediatly to the start of the loop. its also possible to add other overdub cycles.
because of the format of one press to loop rather then two you can tap it for millisecond loops .
the only hard part is disengaging it which requires another quick tap, but its still useable with practice.
