Cue & Review Function

This chapter explains how to use the “Cue & Review” function with the REWIND button, the F FWD button, and the SHUTTLE function, and also explains “Digital Scrubbing” with the scrub mode function.

The prerequisite of the following operation is that the time base is ABS, however, the operation can be executed in any time base. To execute this function with a non-ABS time base there is a need to priory switch over to the desired time base.
