5. Program playback of
songs
You can enable two or more songs to playback in a
specified order. This can be used to playback a
medley of songs, or when you wish to record con-
secutive mixdowns of songs to DAT or MD. Pro-
gram Play can be performed even across multiple
drives. As an example, we will explain how to
playback songs in the order of song number I
(internal drive) 01
→
I02
→
A (SCSI ID 0) 05.

MODE] key several times to access the “P✽✽” dis-
play (✽✽ is the sequence of playback).
2 Rotate the [VALUE] dial to select the first step in
the playback sequence; P01.
3 Press the [ ] key, and then rotate the [VALUE]
dial to select the drive from which the song will be

second to finalize the first song for playback. When
this is finalized, the “?” will disappear.

ing playback
A set of mixer settings that have been stored is
called a “scene”, and scenes can be switched as
time elapses during playback. (Refer to p.29)
