Playing back the same passage
repeatedly (A-B Repeat function)
A-B Repeat is a function that repeatedly plays back a
desired region of the song. This is useful when you want to
listen to the same passage repeatedly.
1.
Move to the point at which you want to begin
repeat playback, and press the [A-B REPEAT] key
in the control section.
The [A-B REPEAT] key flashes, and the repeat start location
(point A) is specified.
H INT
The A/B point can be specified either during playback or
when stopped.
2.
Move to the point at which you want to end repeat
playback, and press the [A-B REPEAT] key once
more.
The [A-B REPEAT] key will change from flashing to
constantly lit, and the repeat end location (point B) will be
specified.
N OTE
If you specify a point B that is located earlier than point A, the
region from points B
→
A will be played repeatedly.
3.
If you wish to redo the A/B point setting, press the
[A-B REPEAT] key so that it goes out, and then
repeat the procedure from step 1.
4.
To begin repeat playback, press the PLAY [ R ] key.
Repeat playback will begin when you press the PLAY [
R
]
key while the [A-B REPEAT] key is lit. When the end point
(normally point B) is reached, the recorder jumps to the start
point (normally point A), and playback continues.
5.
To stop repeat playback, press the STOP [ P ] key.
Even after pressing the STOP [ P ] key to stop playback, you
can perform repeat playback again as many times as desired,
as long as the [A-B REPEAT] key is lit.
6.
To turn off repeat playback, press the [A-B
REPEAT] key.
The [A-B REPEAT] key goes out, and repeat playback will
be turned off. The A/B point locations also will be erased.
Finding a desired location
(Scrub/Preview function)
The MRS-802 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 when you want 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 the scrub/preview functions
1.
From the main screen, hold down the STOP [ P ]
key and press the PLAY [ R ] key.
This turns on the scrub function, and a short region (40
milliseconds by default) following the current location will
play back repeatedly.
When the scrub function is on, the display changes as
follows.
2.
Use the status keys 1 - 8 to select the track(s) for
scrub playback.
Up to 2 tracks can be selected simultaneously.
3.
Use the cursor left/right keys to cause the unit
indication at the right edge of the counter (“MS” for
time display, or “TICK” for measure display) to
flash.
4.
Turn the dial to the left or right to find the desired
location.
During scrub playback, the current location can be moved
