Pressing the PLAY button is also the same as punching out, except that the part will immediately start playing from the beginning. The rewind and fast forward buttons will also punch out. Pressing STOP/CONTINUE also punches out, but stops the part from playing as well.

When recording for the first time on an empty part, the track will continue recording until STOP/CONTINUE, FAST-FORWARD, REWIND, or PLAY is pressed. When one is pressed, this determines the length of the part, rounded to the nearest beat. When recording on any other track, the part will automatically stop when the end of the part (as determined by the first record track) is reached. If LOOP is on, the RECORD LED will turn off ("punch out"), and the part will begin playing from the start. It it possible to set the length before recording the first track, or to change the length after recording the first track (see LENGTH).

While holding the RECORD button, pressing and holding the LENGTH button will show on the display the percentage of memory still available to recording.
