By repeating the operation above, you can prac- tice auto in/out operation as many times as you like.

<Note>: By using the loop function when rehearsing the auto punch in/out operation, you can concentrate on playing without the need of troublesome operation of the MR- 8HD. See page 45 for details about the loop function.
