Idiot's 'Guide To Looping On A BR800' required!

[Super 8]

BR-800 as a looper anyone?  I saw some hairy 'RAWK God' on YouTube demonstrating the BR800 with a footswitch thingy like some kind of Jam-master/KT Tunstall looping pedal and I was intrigued by the idea but the practical technicalities of how to actually do it went over my head.  Could somebody be so kind to talk me through it step-by-step?  (Pretend you're explaining it to a 4 year old with the attention span of a goldfish and I MIGHT get it!)  CHEERS!

The only difference between normal recording and loop recording is that, when you select the track on which you wish to record, you press the track button again to make it blink. In other words, when you press a track button once to arm it, the track button lights up steady - this is normal record mode. But if you press it again, it will start to blink - this is loop record mode. When you finish recording the phrase, press Stop. The phrase you just recorded will then be copied to a length of about 200 measures. Now you can press the Zero button to go to 00:00:00-00:0, then press Play to play back the repeating loop while you play or sing along.

The recording which will be looped includes everything from the moment you press Play (after arming the track in loop mode and pressing Rec to enter record standby) to the moment you press Stop. To get the timing right, you'll need to record to a drum pattern or metronome pattern. And it would probably help a lot if you had a foot switch. Then you can listen to the drum pattern or metronome and click the foot switch precisely at the start of a measure to begin recording your phrase, and click it again at the end of the last measure of your phrase (beat 1 of the next measure, really).
