Note

•As in normal playback mode, you can stop playback, cue a file, or insert an index or temp mark in slow playback and fast playback modes as well.

Setting an index mark or a temp mark

If index marks and temp marks have been placed into your files, you can quickly find a location you want to listen to when you are fast forwarding, fast rewinding, or cuing a file. Index marks can only be placed into files created by Olympus voice recorders, but temp marks can be used to temporarily remember desired locations.

• A number appears on the display and an index mark or temp mark is placed into the file.
