Setting the time between repeats
On tape systems, it is common to use a repeat loop
for rehearsal. However, because of the nature of tape
systems, there is a definite gap between the end of
the repeat loop and the start of the loop as it is
replayed. On a disc system, the join between the end
and the start of the loop can be seamless, which does
not allow the listener to prepare for the next loop (for
instance, a vocalist may need to draw a breath before
starting the vocal phrase).
The 788 allows you to set an interval between the end
of a repeat loop and the start of the next playback of
the loop:
