Playback Operations exclusively for Audio Song  Vocal Cancel This let you cancel or attenuate the center position of the stereo sound in Audio Song playback. This lets you sing "karaoke" style with just instrumental backing, or play the melody part on the keyboard, since the vocal sound is usually at the center of the stereo image in most recordings. To turn the Vocal Cancel function on/off, first select an Audio Song, then turn on/off (Vocal Cancel). NOTE Though the Vocal Cancel function is highly effective on most audio recordings, the vocal sound on some songs may not be completely cancelled.  Time Stretch Like Tempo adjustment of a MIDI Song, this lets you adjust the playback speed of an Audio Song by stretching or compressing it. To do this, touch (Time Stretch) to call up the setup window. Touch in this window to set the value (from 70% to 160%). Higher values result in a faster tempo.  Pitch Shift Like the Transpose function of the MIDI Song, this lets you shift the pitch of an Audio Song in semitone steps (from -12 to 12).  A-B Repeat Playback This lets you repeatedly play back a specified range (between points A and B). 1 Touch (Play/Pause) to start playback. 2 Specify the repeat range. When playback reaches the point you want to specify as the starting point (A), turn on (A-B Repeat). When playback reaches the point you want to specify as the ending point (B), touch (A-B Repeat) again. The range from Point A to Point B will be played back repeatedly. Top of the Song A B End of the Song NOTE Specifying only Point A results in repeat playback between Point A and the end of Song. 3 To cancel A-B repeat playback, turn off (A-B Repeat). The time of point A and B are cleared, and Repeat Playback is canceled. Specifying the repeat range while Song playback is stopped 1. Fast-forward the Song to Point A then turn on (A-B Repeat). 2.
