Using various locate points to locate

The AW2816 lets you specify locate points at desired
locations in a song, and press a key to locate (change
the current time location) instantly to those points.
You can set the following locate points.
In point/Out point
These are locate points used to specify the range for
auto punch-in/out ( P.64). Normally, the locations
at which recording most recently began and ended
will automatically be set as the In and Out points.
As necessary, the location of these points can be
edited in the screen.
A/B points
These are locate points used to specify the range of
the A-B Repeat function ( P.99). The A point and B
point can be set at any point in the song, either by
using the keys or by editing the settings in the
screen.
Start point/End point
These locate points normally correspond to the
beginning and end of the song. When a new song is
created, the Start point will be initially set as abso-
lute time 00:00:00.000. When you record or edit
the song, the last location in the song will automati-
cally be set as the End point. As necessary, the loca-
tion of these points can be edited in the screen.
The procedure for using the keys to set a locate
point and then to locate to that point is as follows.
