Scrub function

When editing a sound, some times you need to know
exactly where the sound starts, or exactly where the
recording with an auto punch in starts.
To enable you to find these points accurately, the BR-600 is
equipped with the Scrub function.
When you use the Scrub function during playback (called
“scrubbing”), the portion from your before or after the
current position (approximately 45 msec) is played back
and repeated.

Preview function

With the Preview function, you can playback the one-
second portion of the song before or after your current
position.
By using this together with the Scrub function, at the same
time slowly moving your current position in the song, it
becomes easy to find the exact transition point from one
phrase to the next.

The [PLAY] begins flashing and scrubbing starts.
The “ ” (SCRUB FROM) and “ ” (SCRUB TO)

When the cursor is set under the scrub point, it is
possible to change scrub point by TIME/VALUE dial.
