The preview function enables you to repeatedly audition
the rise (fade in) or the fall (fade out) of the sound data at
a locate point (edit point) that is stored in the AUTO PUNCH
IN/OUT, AUTO RTN START/END, or CLIPBOARD IN/OUT
key. This is also called “point rehearsal.”
With this function, you can check the locate points in real-
time.
You can also use this function to fine-tune the position of
the locate points while previewing the sound.
This function is effective only when the FD-4 is stopped.
