Locating an event memory

You can store up to 99 event memory points (00 to 99). These are used for the "Skip locate" function, as well as
for the Scene event map described later in "Chapter 3. Advanced mixer operations."

Creating an event memory

1. At the desired position while the VF-16 is stopped or
during playback, press the [HOLD/>] key.
The time when pressing the [HOLD/>] key is held on the
screen.
2. Press the [STORE] key.
The key lights up (in red) and "Hit Any Memory Keys!"
appears on the screen.
3. Press the [LOCATE/EVT MEM] key while holding down
the [SHIFT] key.
"Entry EVT**" (where ** shows the number) appears for
a short time, while the time held in step 1 is entered in
the event memory.
<Hint>
Event memory numbers are assigned in ascending or-
der of ABS time, regardless of order in which event
memories are created.
For example, if you create event memories in order as
shown in the upper diagram below, the event memory
numbers are assigned as shown in the lower diagram.
