Repeat
The
repeat function allows you
to
repeatedly play
the material
that
occurs
between
the
in
point
and
out
point.
Unlike
the repeat function found on
tape based
recorders, the
DR4vr
does
not
have
to
rewind
when
the out point
is
reached.
So
repeat playback
is
continuous.
You
can even
use
it
to
experiment
with, for example,
drum
loops. In
fact,
by using the repeat function
to
perfect loop
points,
and
the edit functions
to
copy,
etc.,
you
could
create a
complete
drum
track
using
just the
DR4vr.
