36 Quick Search Functions 5 Quick Search Functions This chapter explains the quick search functions. Searching for Songs The [ ] and [ ] SONG SEARCH buttons can be used at any time except recording to locate songs. The [ ] SONG SEARCH button locates the previous song and the [ ] SONG SEARCH button locates the next song. When the [ ] SONG SEARCH button is pressed in the middle of a song, the beginning of that song is located. When the SONG SEARCH buttons are used during playback, the song is located and then playback continues. When they are used in Stop mode, the song is located and then Pause mode is engaged. Searching by Time You can locate specific points within a song or disc by entering the exact time position in minutes and seconds. When the time counter is set to either ELAPSE or REMAIN, a point within the current song can be located. When the time counter is set to TOTAL, a point on the entire disc can be located. 1. In Stop or Pause mode, press the [-] and [+] DATA buttons together. The time counter digits flash. 2. Use the [-] and [+] DATA buttons to enter a time. Press the [-] and [+] DATA buttons together to reset the time to 00:00. 3. Press the [PLAY] button. The specified time is located and playback starts. To locate to the specified point and have MD4 wait in Pause mode, press the [ENTER] button instead of the [PLAY] button. Searching for the Last Rec IN and OUT Points When you record or rehearse, the start and end points of the recording are automatically stored as the LAST REC IN and OUT points. When the IN and OUT points have been set, IN and OUT appear on the display. You can use the LAST REC SEARCH [IN] and [OUT] buttons to locate these points. This is useful for checking these points. You can adjust the position of the IN and OUT points in one frame steps. See Adjusting Markers on page 38 for more information. The IN and OUT points are not remembered when a disc is ejected or MD4 is turned off. The LAST REC IN and OUT points are used with the Auto Punch In/Out function and the Off Line Punch function. See Auto Punch In/Out on page 24 and Track-to-Track Copy on page 47, respectively. 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 to the Start and End markers.
