Pause or stop playback as needed.

Use the Pause (❙❙) and START/STOP (>/) buttons. Stopping playback does not cancel the set A/B points or the A/B Repeat function.

Turn off the A/B Repeat func- tion.

Press the button. This can be done either when the song is stopped or during play- back.

HINT:

You can also set the A/B Repeat function while the song is stopped. Simply use the r/f buttons to select the measures for the A and B points in the song, then start playback.

While the song is playing back (but before setting the A/B points), try slowing down the Tempo (page 21). This makes it easier to accurately set the A and B points. Slowing down the Tempo also makes it easier to practice the parts you want to learn.

To set the A point at the beginning of a song, press the button before starting song playback.

NOTE:

Selecting a different song number (or changing to the Style mode) automatically cancels the A/B Repeat function.
