About center cancel

Center cancel can be used to cut out the vocal part (which is normally located in the center of the stereo field) from an audio file stored to a memory card from your computer. How successful center cancel is in cutting out the audio depends on the audio file you are playing back.

Each press of the L-18 (PART SELECT) button toggles between center cancel and normal (no center cancel) playback. The current setting can be determined by checking the graphic formed inside the level indicator as shown below.
