Cue List Playback & Copy
The Cue List function allows you to compile a cue list (i.e., a sequence of cues for playback) using
markers. Cues are loaded into memory for continuous, uninterrupted playback. The Cue List
can also be copied to create a new song.
A Cue List can contain up to nine steps. You can specify the start marker, end marker, and the
number of times the step is to repeat from 1 to 9.
