AW1600 Owner’s Manual
“Markers” are symbols that you assign at desired locations in a song, so that you can move
quickly to a desired point. You can assign up to 99 markers in each song. Use the [
]/[ ] keys
to find and move to markers.
1
Move to the position in the song at which
you want to assign a marker.
You can assign a marker whether the song is playing
or stopped.
2
Press the [MARK] key.
The top line of the display will briefly indicate
“MARK POINT SET.” This indicates that a marker
has been set. A new marker will be added each time
you press the [MARK] key.
Markers are automatically numbered 1–99 starting at
the beginning of the song. If you register a new marker
between two existing markers, subsequent markers
will be automatically renumbered upward.
3
Press the [ ] key to locate to the previous
marker, or press the [ ] key to locate to
the next marker.
The song will move to that location, and an icon will
appear at the left of the counter to indicate the cur-
rently selected marker number.
This icon will remain visible until you play or rewind/
fast-forward past the previous or next locate point or
marker location.
Markers that you register are displayed in the TRACK
screen VIEW page or PAD page as shown below.
