Repeatedly Playing A Specific Region (The A-B Repeat Function) - Yamaha AW 16G Owner's Manual

Various types of playback
Repeatedly playing a specific region
The AW16G provides an "A-B Repeat" function that
repeatedly plays the region between the A point and B
point. This is useful when you want to repeatedly play
back a certain region of the song while you adjust the
mix.
1
Register the A point and B point to the loca-
tions at which you want the repeated play-
back to start and end.
For details on how to set the A point and B point,
refer to "Using markers" (→ p. 67).
Tip! Tip!
If you set the B point earlier than the A point, the B -> A
region will play repeatedly.
2
While the transport is stopped, press the
[REPEAT] key.
The [REPEAT] key will light, and the A-B Repeat
function will be on. The song will automatically
locate to the A point.
Note Note
The A and B points must be at least one second apart. If
they are closer than this, a message of "REPEAT POINTS
TOO CLOSE" will appear when you press the [REPEAT]
key, and repeat playback will not be possible.
3
To begin repeat playback, press the PLAY
[ ] key.
Playback will begin from the A point. When you
reach the B point, you will automatically return to
the A point and continue playback.
Tip! Tip!
• Playback will stop automatically when the A/B region
has been repeated 99 times.
• If you press the [REPEAT] key while the song is playing,
repeat playback between the A and B points will begin
automatically, regardless of the current position.
4
To stop playback, press the STOP [■] key.
Playback will stop, but the A-B Repeat function will
remain turned on.
When the A-B Repeat function is on, pressing the
PLAY [ ] key will immediately resume repeat
playback, regardless of the current position.
5
To cancel repeat playback, press the [REPEAT]
key.
The [REPEAT] key will go dark, and the A-B Repeat
function will be cancelled. If you cancel the A-B
Repeat function during repeat playback, normal
playback will occur from that point.
Tip! Tip!
If you perform a recording operation while the A-B
Repeat function is on, the A-B Repeat function will be
temporarily disabled.
