Playing Two Units' Worth of Data on the Left and Right (Dual Mono Mode)

What Is the Dual Mono Mode?/Equipment
Connections
The Dual Mono mode is a feature for playing different mono audio
phrases independently on the left and right channels.
By playing odd-numbered phrases (A0001, A0003,... or B0001,
B0003,...) from the left channel and even-numbered phrases (A0002,
A0004,... or B0002, B0004,...) from the right channel, you can play
back two units' worth of data on a single unit.
You can also play back separate phrases on the left and right
channels either simultaneously, or shifted.
