Cueing

This section describes the cueing feature for cueing
sound during the F FWD or REWIND process.

Cueing with the [F FWD]/[REWIND] key

The user can cue at 3x speed by pressing the [F FWD]/
[REWIND] key while the recorder is playing.

Either "FWD>" or "<RWD" will appear on the LCD.

(1x speed).

Digital scrubbing with the [SCRUB] key

To enter the Digital Scrub Mode, press the [SCRUB]
key while the recorder is in the STOP state to cue at 0-
1x speed without any change in musical key.
Digital scrub is possible for each track. The level
envelope (volume wave form) of that track appears.
This feature is effective when it is necessary to conduct

point (location) between songs.

state.
The scrub mode is activated and the following display
appears.

Current location
3. Turn the [JOG] dial left and right to hear the playback
sound of only the track selected.
The center line indicates the current location. Scrub takes
place in the FORWARD or REWIND direction from this
point. Either "<Scrub" or "Scrub>" appears when turning
the [JOG] dial, which moves the cursor forward or reverse.
The time value (or BAR/BEAT) also appears in realtime
while scrubbing.
4. Press the [STOP] key to return to the normal display.
The time display when ending the scrub process appears.

Shuttle Cueing

Shuttle cueing at a cue speed between 1-64x is possible
by turning the [JOG] dial while the [SHIFT] key is
depressed when the recorder is playing. The speed
varies according to the degree the dial is turned.
1. Press the [PLAY] key to start playback.
2. Turn the [JOG/SHUTTLE] dial to the left/right while the
[SHIFT] key is depressed.
* Turn the [JOG] dial to the right to shuttle cue in the
FORWARD direction.
Turn the [JOG] dial to the left to shuttle cue in the
REWIND direction.
* The cueing speed varies from 1x, 2x, 4x, 8x, 16x, 32x
and 64x according to the degree (angle) in which the
[JOG] dial is turned. The current cueing speed appears
on the LCD.
* Shuttle cueing continues as long as the [SHIFT] key is
depressed, even when the [JOG] dial isn't used.
3. Lift finger from [SHIFT] key to return to the original play
speed (1x).
<Remember!>
Once the data is rewound to the beginning of a program
(ABS 0), playback starts from the beginning of the
program, regardless of pressing the [SHIFT] key. When
reaching the end of a program (ABS:23H 59M 59S), the
program stops and the [PLAY] key flashes.
