Clocked overdub loop: play while armed to capture; each wrap applies Alt
strength through the selected Decay Mode (0 = freeze forever). Pitch modes stay
on the global scale. Random jitters scale pitch and only lowers velocity. Gate
shortens duration toward a 16th floor. Hold the button for long notes — mute is
Shift+Long. Hold+Fader glissandos through scale degrees toward the fader
(Chord Vamp–style). Length is Shift+Short (1–8 bars), not Alt/Third. Third picks
Decay Mode (Configurator sync). Quantized to 16ths.
