A/B REPEAT

This useful function is ideal for practicing and learning purposes. It allows you to specify any section or phrase of a song (between point A and point B) and repeat it — while you play or practice along with it.

While playing back a song, set point A (the start point of the section).

With the Song mode active, select and play back the desired song. (See

page 20.) Then, while the song is playing back, press the button once at the beginning point of the section to be repeated.
