Finding a desired location
(scrub/preview function)
The MRS-1608 provides a "scrub" function that lets you
search for a desired location while repeatedly playing a
short region before or after the current point. This is
convenient to accurately find the point at which a specific
sound starts or stops.
When the scrub function is on, you can use the "preview
function" that plays 0.7 seconds before and after the current
point. By using the scrub and preview functions together,
you can find the desired location quickly and accurately.
Using scrub/preview

To perform scrub playback, hold down the
P
STOP [
] key from the main screen and
press the PLAY [
The keys light up, and a short region (40 milliseconds by
default) following the current location will play back
repeatedly.
Immediately after activating the scrub function, audio
track 1 will be selected as target for scrub playback.

Up to four tracks can be selected simultaneously for
scrub playback. (Stereo track pairs are counted as two
tracks.) Scrub playback is toggled on and off for a track
by repeatedly pressing the respective status key. If you
attempt to select more than four tracks, scrub playback
will be carried out for the last four tracks only.

If you press the REW [T] key, a region of 0.7 seconds
prior to the current location will play (ending at the
current location). If you press the FF [Y] key, a region of
0.7 seconds following the current location will play
(beginning at the current location). This is called
"preview playback". When preview playback ends, scrub
playback will resume.
