7. FRAME SEARCH
This feature allows you to scroll through a track frame by frame, allowing you to find and set a starting cue or
loop point. To use the scroll function you must first be in Pause Mode (see section 5) or Cue Mode (see section
8). Once you are in Pause or Cue mode, make sure that the Search button (17) is deactivated and then use
the jog wheel to scroll through the track (Figure 10). When you use the search function the monitor (headphone
level) function allows you to here what you are scrolling through. Once you reach your desired starting point
you can set a cue (starting) point by pressing the play/pauSe button (18) as in Figure 8. Pressing the cue
button (19) as in Figure 9 will now return you to the point you just set.
