Manual Step Playlist Characteristics
If the Playlist Type is MANUAL STEP, the P LAY button will play the first Cut in the Playlist and
stop. When P LAY is pressed again, the next Cut will play. If P LAY is pressed during playback of a
Cut, the playing Cut will stop and the next Cut will play immediately. The sequence will continue
in this manner until the end of the Playlist, or until the P
LAYLIST button is turned off.
If L OOP is on, individual Cuts will loop until L OOP is turned off, S TOP is pressed, or P LAY is
pressed. If Play is pressed, the next Cut in the Playlist will begin looping.
Follow-On Playlist Characteristics
If the Playlist Type is FOLLOW-ON, the P LAY button will play the first Cut in the Playlist. When
the first Cut ends, the next Cut in the Playlist will automatically begin playing immediately. The
Hot-Key corresponding to the current Cut will light when playing, and the next-to-follow Hot-
Key will flash indicating that it is queued to play.
A Follow-On Playlist will continue to play to its end unless you press S TOP . Pressing P LAY will
then cause the next Cut in sequence to begin. If you exit the Playlist mode while a Follow-On
Playlist is executing, the current Cut will play to completion and then the Playlist will stop.
Pressing PLAY while a Follow-On Playlist is executing has no effect.
If L OOP is on, the entire sequence of Cuts in the Playlist will repeat. Pressing S TOP ends
playback of the current cut immediately. Turning off P LAYLIST will cause playback to end after
the currently playing Cut finishes. Turning off L OOP will cause playback to end at the end of the
Playlist.
Selecting and Playing a List
To select and play a Playlist:
•
If necessary, select the Bank that contains the desired Playlist. (The Playlist number
is always the same as the Bank.)
•
Push the P LAYLIST button.
•
Push the P LAY button.
Playlists always start at their first Step when turned on. A Playlist can be enabled "on the fly"
during playback of another Cut. The next time P
LAY is pressed, the first Step in the Playlist will
be heard. If it is a Follow-On list, the entire list will play in succession.
P LAYLIST can be turned off during playback, causing playback to stop at the end of the currently
playing Cut. Also, the Hot-Keys immediately become active and can interrupt the playing Cut.
For convenience, the H OT -K EY corresponding to a Playlist Step will light when playing; and the
next-to-follow H OT -K EY will flash. The display always shows the Cut currently playing on the
bottom line, and the Cut in the currently selected Step on the top line; see Changing Playlist
Playback Order below.
Upon completion of a Playlist (the last Cut in the list Plays to completion or Stop is pressed
during its playback), the Playlist mode is automatically turned off.
