Each squad records 4 bars, starting on the next bar line. Hit Overdub on a playing squad to stack another layer on top. Press Rec while stopped and you get a one-bar count-in.

Wingman

Listens to your first 4 bars, works out the chords under your phrase, then joins on bar 5 with a bass line locked to the kick, sustained pads, and a counter sax that answers your phrase a third above. Re-learns every 4 bars you play.
