Moving to a desired location in
the song (Locate function)
You can specify a location within the song in time (minutes
/ seconds / 10 ms) units or in measure (measure / beat /
tick) units, and move to that location.
1. In the main screen, press the [TIME BASE] key in
the display section.
The time display and measure display will alternate each
time you press the [TIME BASE] key.
Locate operations can be performed even if the rhythm
section is disconnected from the recorder section (i.e.,
when the [RHYTHM] key is lit). In this case, however, the
measure display will always be used.
2. Make sure that the recorder is stopped, and press
the cursor [ R ] key once in the main screen.
The "M" character will blink for time display, and the
"MEASURE" indicator will blink for measure display.
3. Use the cursor [ E ]/[ R ] keys to move the blinking
area to the left or right, and turn the dial to specify
the location to which you want to move.
The time display can be changed in minutes/seconds/10
millisecond units, and the measure display can be changed
in measure/beat/tick units. When you change the value, you
will immediately move to the specified location.
You can now press the PLAY [ R ] key to begin playing
from the point to which you located.

song (Marker function)
You can assign up to 100 marks in a song at any desired
location, and locate to a mark by pressing a key or by
specifying the desired mark number. This is convenient when
you want to play back repeatedly from a specific location.
The marker function can also be used to recall mixer
settings (scenes) at a desired location in a song (
→ p.51).
Here's how to assign a mark at the desired location in a
song.
1. Find to the point at which you want to assign a
mark.
If necessary, you can use the Scrub function to make fine
adjustments to the current location in 10 millisecond steps
( → p.31).
A mark can be assigned either during playback or when
stopped.
2. Press the [MARK] key.
A mark will be assigned to the current location. When a
mark has been assigned, the new mark number (01 – 99)
will appear in the MARKER area in the upper right of the
display.
The mark number is assigned automatically in ascending
order from the beginning of the song. If you add a new
mark between two existing marks, the subsequent marks
will be renumbered.
