Does the Looper really NOT keep my loops after shutdown?!
I prepared a loop at home also with input over USB to prepare for rehearsals.
I trained with it a lot of times and after I was finished I saved everything being totally convinced the looper safes the loop as my normal loop pedal does even after power down.
At rehearsals I stood there with pants down and nothing prepared.
So it seems that the loops not stay in memory after power down?!
Is there any possibility to save wav or any kind of audio files to the looper for playback?
Scenario: Have drums and synth stored on the QC to train with guitar and vocals along with it.
Best regards

> As a newbie here this may have been covered, but coming from Headrush to the QC, however good I think the QC is (it sounds glorious!) there is one thing that makes the Headrush MX5, which costs a 1/4 of the price, stand out is the way you can save and load loops in the looper function. This makes it an incredible writing tool, as you can literally save any loop you like in the the memory, and export it as a .WAV file to use elsewhere. And the ability to store loops in .WAV format means you have…
