• You can set a preroll time in the [Preroll ?] menu in SETUP
mode so that the FD-8 will start playback preroll time before
the locate point. You can set the preroll time from 0 to 10
seconds. Refer to the chapter “Changing the Initial Settings
(SETUP Mode)” on page 102.
Auto Repeat
The Auto Repeat function allows the FD-8 to repeat playback up to the AUTO RTN END point, automatically
locate the AUTO RTN START point, then play up to the AUTO RTN END point until you cancel the function by
pressing the STOP button. To enable this function, both AUTO PLAY mode and AUTO RTN mode should be
turned on, and the AUTO RTN START point and the AUTO RTN END point should already be set.
Using this function will facilitate the Auto Punch In/Out and Manual Punch In/Out rehearsal. See “Hint”
