Searching for Markers
The [
] and [
] MARK SEARCH buttons are used to search for markers within a song.
The [
] MARK SEARCH button locates the previous marker and the MARK SEARCH [
]
button locates the next marker. For a song with no markers inserted, you can only locate the
Start and End markers. Every time you jump to a marker using this method, the MD8 auto-
matically switches to Playback Pause mode.
Inserting Markers
You can insert up to ten markers in a song during recording or playback. Markers are a con-
venient way to locate specific points within a song. They can be adjusted and erased. The
Start and End markers, which are inserted automatically when recording, cannot be adjusted
or erased.
Markers can also be used to arrange sections of a song into a Cue List. See
Cue List Playback
& Copy
on page 59 for more information.

using the DATA dial or CURSOR shuttle), the MD8 automatically switches to Play Pause
