Selecting and Playing Songs

54

The convenient A-B Repeat function is an ideal aid for practicing and learning. It
allows you to specify a phrase of a song (between point A and point B) and repeat
it — while you play or practice along with it.

1

While playing a song, set point A (the start point).

During playback, press the [

] button once, at the beginning point to

be repeated.

2

Set point B (the end point).

As the song continues playing, press the [

] button once again, at the

ending point to be repeated. The selected phrase repeats indefinitely until
stopped.

3

Pause or stop playback as needed.

Use the [

] button or [START/STOP] button. Stopping playback does not

cancel the set A/B points or the A-B Repeat function.

4

Turn off the A-B Repeat function.

Press the [

] button.

• The A and B points can only be

specified at the beginning of a
measure (beat 1), and not at any
point in the middle of a measure.

• To set the A point to the begin-

ning of a song, press the
[

] button before starting

playback.

• If you’re repeat practicing a par-

ticularly difficult section, try slow-
ing down the Tempo to an
appropriate speed to make it eas-
ier to play and master the part.
You may also want to slow down
the Tempo while setting the A
and B points; this makes it easier
to accurately set the points.

• You can also set the A-B Repeat

function when the song is
stopped. Simply use the [
r ]
and [
f ] buttons to select the
desired measures, pressing the
[

] button for each point,

then start playback.
