with the R5 button to have the CP automatically handle the punching in/out while you play.
3) Press the REHEARSAL button (F4, F5) to listen to the song for rehearsal. If you need to adjust mixing
or if you would like to loop the song, use the MIXER (F2) or LOOP ON/OFF (F6) button.

immediately from the Start Bar that you have chosen. Once the song reaches the Punch In Bar, any
notes that you play on the keyboard will be recorded.

song to the end unless you press the STOP button.
You can repeat the punch-in/out section by turning the looping on with the F6 button.
