Live looping for acoustic guitar

Hi all, so I bought an SP 555 hoping I could use it for simple live looping for my acoustic band (guitar, singer, occasional piano). Having played around with it, it doesn't look like it will do what I want - notably create loops on the fly without playback stopping.

But then I found this vid;

Any idea how he is managing to loop the bass live without stopping the playback?

Thanks in advance,

he records everything using the loop capture. you can choose to loop 1, 2 or 4 bars (with the bpm that you have set) or record freely up to 15 seconds and overdub it as it loops (with rec button lit of course)
hope that helps
