• The stored or edited locate points are used only in the currently-selected Program.

Storing in real-time

You can store the locate point (in the ABS, MTC, or BAR/BEAT/CLK Time Base) in real-time while the FD-8 is
playing.

1. Press the PLAY button to play back data.

2. When the point you wish to store is reached, press

the HOLD/> key.

The time value or bar/beat/clock value of the point is
captured. The FD-8 enters data edit mode.

3. Press the STORE key.

The STORE LED lights up.

4. Press the desired memory key.

The STORE LED turns off.
The captured time value (or bar/beat/clock value) is
stored in the memory key. After the data is stored, the
FD-8 displays the previous Time Base and continues
playback.

• You can omit Step 2 above to speed operation.

• If you set “BAR/BEAT Resolution mode” in SETUP mode

to ON, the FD-8 will round off the CLK value of the captured

bar/beat/clock value. That is, the locate point will be at the

beginning of the beat (00). Refer to page 111 for more

information.
