The A-B loop mode allows seamless loop play

should be in the same track.

PRESET key.
2 Select
01 LOOP (
LOOP
) using the dial or
numeric keys.

4 Select
A-B
(
A-B
).
5 Press the
ENTER key. The
A-B
indicator on the
display lights.
3.4.3 Setting A-B loop points
When you press the A or B key S, you will capture
the appropriate loop point.
1 Make sure the
A and B keys are turned off
(unlit). Locate to the location to be used as the
start point of the loop (this can be done “on the
fly” during playback).
2 When you press the
A key, the current location
is captured as the loop start point. The
B key
starts flashing.
3 Locate to the location to be used as the loop
end point (or continue playback until the end
point is reached).
4 When you press the B key, the current position
is captured as the loop end point. If the A and
B locations are different, both the
A and B keys
light.
If you set the loop points during playback, looped
playback mode will start when both points have been
set.
If you set the loop points while playback is paused,
pressing the
PLAY key will start the looped playback.
NOTE
If the Direct mode (preset function 20) is turned off, the
loop points can be captured only when both the
A
and
B
keys are turned off. If the loop points have already been
set, these points must be cleared before the new locations
are memorized.
If the Direct mode (preset function 20) is turned on,
the loop points can be set when the LOOP key is
unlit.
3.4.4 Playback in A-B loop play mode
If you press the LOOP key R in play mode while the
A and B keys are lit, loop playback mode will start
and the
LOOP key lights. If the A and B keys are not
lit, pressing the
LOOP key will have no effect.
If the
LOOP key is lit, and you press it again while
playing back between the loop points, looped play-
back stops, but the unit continues to play past the end
loop point.
If you press the B key while the unit is playing back
inside the A-B loop, the point where you press the B
key becomes the new loop end point (shortening the
loop).
If you press the
PLAY/PAUSE key while the A-B
loop is being played back, playback stops.
3.4.5 Clearing loop points
When you press the A key and hold down the B key
(or the other way round), the loop points are cleared.
If you play back a different track from the one con-
taining the loop points, the loop points are also
cleared.
NOTE
You can memorize the loop points for the next time
you play the disc, using the memory function.
3.4.6 Editing the loop points
It is possible to edit the loop points in the following
way at any time, except during loop playback.
1 “Double-click” (press twice in quick succes-
sion) the
A or B key. The appropriate loop
point is shown in the time display.
2 The unit enters pause mode at the A or B point
(depending on the key which has been double-
clicked) and the key starts flashing.
3 Re-set the loop point using the dial or
SEARCH
keys.
4 Press the
A or B key (the key which was dou-
ble-clicked). The new point is stored.
To cancel the loop point edit process, push any key
other than the
A or B key at any time before the final
step.
NOTE
If Direct mode (preset function 20) is turned on,
pressing either the A or B key will set the new loop
point directly.
