VR800 Owner’s Manual (Preview Function)

Preview Function

The preview function enables you to repeatedly audition the rise (fade in) or the fall (fade out) of the sound data at a locate point (edit point) that is stored in the AUTO PUNCH IN/OUT, AUTO RTN START/END, or CLIPBOARD IN/OUT key. This is also called “point rehearsal.” With this function, you can check the locate points in real- time. You can also use this function to fine-tune the position of the locate points while previewing the sound. This function is effective only when the VR800 is stopped.
