How to Delete Loops in a Boss Loop Station

The Boss Loop Station is an electronic device used for both recording music and for creating unique live performances. When playing live, it can be used to record a riff or rhythm and play it on loop, allowing you to play over that loop or even continue adding layers of music to create the illusion of a one-person symphony. If you need to delete a loop, you must first determine whether you want to delete the loop stored in temporary memory or one stored in the internal memory.
