The METER screen Meter 2 page will display the input/output levels of tracks 1-16 and the output level of the stereo output channel, as well as a counter in large numerals. 2 Press the [RTZ] key of the Locate section. The counter in the display will rewind to zero (00:00:00.000). Tip! When the song is in the initial state, the counter will indicate the current location in units of "hours: minutes: seconds. millisecond" units.
