13. Reverse Play:
Reverse play allows you to play a track, loop, or sample backwards. This function is activated by pressing the
REV/PLAY BUTTON (26) as in figure 31. This function will react differently to different playback modes:
- Reverse track/disc play. In this mode the unit will playback in reverse until
the reverse function is turned off. If the reverse function is not turned off
the unit will continue to play the remainder of the disc in reverse mode until it
reach the begging of the disc. When the unit comes to the beginning it will
automatically cue to the first track. If the unit is paused in this mode it will
continue to play in reverse when playback begins again.
- Reverse loop play. In this mode the loop will play in reverse once and turn off.
If the reverse function is turned off at this point, the loop will continue in regular
play. If the OUT BUTTON (18) is pressed during reverse loop playback mode,
playback will continue in reverse until the reverse function
- Reverse sample play. In this mode the unit will play the sample in reverse
continuously, until the reverse function is turned off. If another sample is
selected that sample will also play in reverse mode. If a sample is activated
over a track both the track and the sample will play in reverse until the
reverse function is turned off.
