Playing the Demonstration Tunes Preset Song A-B Repeat The A-B Repeat function can be used to continuously repeat a specified phrase within a preset song. Combined with the Part Cancel function described below, this provides an excellent way to practice difficult phrases. Specify the Beginning (A) of the Phrase Select and play a preset song, then press the [FUNCTION] button at the beginning of the phrase you want to repeat. This sets the "A" point ("A-" will appear on the display). To set the "A" point at the very beginning of the song, press the [FUNCTION] button before starting playback. Specify the End (B) of the Phrase Press the [FUNCTION] button a second time at the end of the phrase. This sets the "B" point ("A-b" will appear on the display). At this point repeat playback will begin between the specified A and B points. The metronome will sound when playback begins to give you a tempo reference. However, if playback repeats from the beginning of the song, there will be no tempo reference from metronome. To set the B point at the song's end, press the [FUNCTION] button after song playback is complete and before "A- " disappears from the display. Stop Playback ...Press the SONG [START/STOP] button to stop playback while retaining the specified A and B points. A-B repeat playback will resume if the SONG [START/STOP] button is then pressed again. To cancel the A and B points press the [FUNCTION] button once. • The A and B points are automatically canceled when a new song is selected. • The A-B Repeat function cannot be used during "ALL" or "rnd" playback.
